This evening I was home around 7.30 and it was still 32 degrees C when I rode out. There was only the slightest breeze blowing and even the tarmac felt sticky. My legs were good though and I decided to do some extended laps around the Haasrode Industriepark. Making it a good 8K in lenght when I was satisfied with the lap. Did a couple of them and managed to get the average speed up to around 30kph, even though there were a couple of faux-plats in it, sometimes going up to 4%. But the legs were good and I did a solid 2 hours ride, without really pushing things. With this temperature it is better not to push too hard. The hot bath afterwards was really hot and I just kept on sweating.
