so i'm still here in New England enjoying some nice family time (oh boy). but WTF is up with it being hotter here than it usually is in my hometown area of Hawaii?

i rode yesterday and today even though it's hot and humid. the Concord, MA area has some nice paved and unpaved old railroad right of ways to ride on.

and of course my Dad's ice cream shop is nearby..... yummm..... it's a godsend in this weather.

It's probably more humid in NE too. I'm from Maui and lived in NYC for awhile and I thought it was way hotter and more humid than living on the rock. Ahhh, those nice tradewinds.

I lived in Hartford but before that I was in New Orleans. I find it hilarious that the temps in NE are hotter than Louisiana!!! And more humid!

Word. It's a beautiful ride. My advice: go hard on the first section after the bridge. It's the steepest part of the whole thing and it's easier for most to attack that and then take it easy after. And save some juice for the last 1000 feet.

I think you'd be glad you're there rather than here for yesterday and today. It has been terribly humid here in Honolulu the past 5 days finally peaking yesterday with scattered showers all over the island. It was raining in Ewa beach yesterday! It takes a lot for rain to reach there. Today at least we got our trades back.

It was just percentage points, like 88% humidity vs. 82%, but it was hotter and more humid in Hartford than New Orleans. The only saving grace, one night I noticed the NO temps only dropped to a low of 77 degrees. Sweltering!
