Experienced the same today. Also a guy who locked up both brakes when he noticed me coming up behind him. At first I was worried I would run him over, then I realized I wanted to run him over, sadly stopped in time.
New Bike test ride weekend for wifey. She had such a great time, it's a done deal. Sweet new gravel bike, Liv Devote. She felt SO much more confident on the loose and marginal roads, it was amazing how much faster she was. It's definitely the right tool for curly bar riding here.
She has a 75 mile ride in two weeks, I think part of her calculation was motivation, she hated her old bike.

I've done away with the curly bars and am sticking with regular mtb bars on my gravel bike. It feels much safer and more capable when the going gets rough. I've been really enjoying the mixed surface rides on the rigid mtb/gravel bike this past week. It's a little hard on the wrists when I run into rocks/potholes that are hidden is all.
Google says it's only 89 and I'm calling bullshit. Trying to build a corrugated steel planter and not pass out. Not sure if I will succeed.
Portland was NEVER on my 'don't go outside after 9:00 am, you will die of heat and sunstroke!' bingo card.
Despite being cloudy and humid opening day of dh was a success. First 3 runs were a little rusty, but got the cobwebs dusted off so to speak. Drier and dustier than I've ever seen it this early in the season. We usually don't get this kind of moon dust until August. Ribs are on the grill, drinking trillium.
93F at 1630 FTN . I have been out in the heat since 0700, leg are cramping inspite of the electrolytes I have consumed
Holy hell, didn't die but it was close. I can't find my staple gun so the lining hasn't been done, but the bitch is together. We plan to plant bamboo for privacy, but the main goal was to keep the dogs from jumping up there and barking at the neighbors dog.
Google says it's 91 @ 5. Ugh.

Three solid hours of great trail riding.
