Here in Louisville, KY it's 88 and 50% humidity. Forecast for the week is 90-94 with humidity between 55-65%. I'll take that over 50 degrees any day. I've always done pretty well with the heat. I'm from KC where it's hotter and more humid this week than here in KY. As an ironworker who has spent every KC winter since 1979 working outside, I'll never, ever complain about hot weather. I sweat as profusely as anyone I've ever known (the bolt on a brand new quill stem will be completely rusted within 2 weeks of installation) and I just drink and drink and am usually none the worse for it, so there has never been a day when I thought it was too hot to ride. I did make a slight miscalculation in 2011 when I decided to ride the Southern Tier route from San Diego to St. Augustine, and I thought it would be clever, since I'm so tough and macho, to begin the ride on July 5th. The first 14 days of the ride reached over 100 degrees, with the peak reading on my Garmin in a parking lot in Phoenix at 122! I never once reached my goal mileage (which I set unreasonably high to start with) and didn't complete the ride. Next time I try it will be an April or October start. Lungimsam, the DC and KC heat and humidity are very, very similar.
