Biking weather?

[Lost ranger]

Is this good biking weather or is just too damn hot?

I vote for too hot.

[vonhosen]

I'll take this over rain &/or cold.

[RemaL]

not hot if you go out early. I was out at 7am and was a bit chilling first thing. Warm after lunch but would rather have it warm and dry

Like cold weather riding it's more about having the right gear than anything

[Mr Dendrite]

It’s bloody gorgeous, stop moaning

[DuncsGTi]

Great weather for it on the south coast right now. Unfortunately, the roads are all too busy with caravans and holiday makers to enjoy

Pissed off with all the hot weather.......













As I'm always working away when it happens and pisses down when I'm in the UK

[Gee68]

I’m going out early tomorrow,forecast 29 degrees.
Kevlar jeans and jacket.I may be suffering from severe dehydration when I get in but I hate not wearing a jacket.

Had a 30 minutes blast today. Wasn’t really bothered by the heat at all as long as speed and airflow were decent.

Went out for a post work blast on Thursday night. Hot going out of town at 6.00pm, lovely down in Surrey by 7.30. Stone me though, there were some real spanners on the road

[Birky_41]

Had a quick blast today at 3pm until 5pm and I gotta say I did struggle a bit. Just hot air hitting me even when travelling

I'm not complaining though id take that over cold or rain any day

Was meant to be at snett tomorrow got a few mates there reckon it's gonna be a scorcher

I'll be doing a bit of mx with my boy

[bogie]

Fantastic, I will be out early tomorrow, mesh jacket, kevlar jeans etc so long as you keep moving its lovely.

The weather this year has been st. How anyone can complain now that we get a few days of decent weather is crazy. I’ve managed my 3rd ride of the year on a road bike today, the last one was a ride to and from a roadbike trackday, the one before that sometime in May I think. This year has been a washout, so I’m voting that this is perfect biking weather.

Too hot for leathers. Riding to Harewood hill climb tomorrow. Be wearing Levis' jeans and jacket. Hope I don't high-side/low-side on route.

Be there or, be misshapen.

[gareth_r]

Too hot... until I bought a Dainese mesh jacket.

[WarnieV6GT]

I normally always wear my leathers with merino wool base layer. I went out yesterday without the base layer and christ it was st.. never again! It still fks my head up that adding an extra layer under leather trousers actually keeps you cooler..or warmer in the cold. Its bloody witchcraft.

This.

You will never ever see me complain about it being too hot or sunny. I’m from the north west and I can tell you that I am fking sick of rain. I hate it.

This year has been awful - all that seems to be changing climate wise for us is that it’s getting wetter. Much, much wetter.

Currently on holiday in the Ardennes mountain biking. It’s bd mental hot. You won’t see me complaining. I know that I’m going to have to go home to floods.

Only sodding weekend where it has been glorious and i'm stuck on a bicycle training for a ultra/audax. Someone cry me a river.

[gareth_r]

Well, it was glorious yesterday.

Today, it's raining (near Bristol).

Perfect weather! Leave the leathers at home and wear shorts, tee shirt and flip flops. Does wonders for the tan!
