Average temperature was 95.3 F, but the ride started out at 105 F and got gradually cooler as we climbed. This was an adventure for which I was not wholly prepared. For the first time in my life I got heat stroke (less than fun) and I was not able to finish the climb (0.7 miles and 400 ft of elevation short). I will have a rematch with the Mountain Palomar when the weather is a little cooler so that heat stroke won't be an issue.

ReplyDeleteWhat, no invite? Heat stroke? Hope it wasn't too bad.
ReplyDelete@Monkey head - yes!
ReplyDelete@Jon - this ride was an experiment. you are DEF invited for the rematch! the ride was awesome, the heatstroke was a new & uncomfortable challenge.
Love the charts!
