hammering in the heat

my second ride of the day was a bit more intense than this morning's. the heat was up - 86 now as compared to 67 then. the wind was stronger. the humidity more of a factor. still, i hammered it. i rode out a mile further before turning around and made the round trip in just a little over three minutes longer than this morning's two-miles-less ride. fun stuff! (12.21 miles @ 19.3mph)
