My riding season is from May to October. But in May I only had time for 2 rides. We sold our house and had to pack and move everything into 2 1/2 months of storage until our new house was available. Fortunately Penny's sister took us in.
June was a beautiful month as usual here, and I managed to escape for 4 rides while the girls were at work.
But this summer has been terribly hot and muggy. As I am unwilling to ride in a T-shirt and shorts, the bike has just sat in the garage.
Mid-August we took possession of our new house, and began moving everything back in. Not finished yet, but livable.
Still dealing with the utility companies. The cell phone droid generations are the dumbest things I have ever had to deal with for business. They use to tell us not to trust anyone over 50. Now you can't trust anyone under 50 to get it right. Despite several phone calls, e-mails, and visits to their website our cable company still refers to me as Penny.
Mid August is usually the cooling off period for summer here. But the heat and humidity persist. Tomorrow will reach 90F but feel like 109F with a 40% chance of strong thunderstorms.
Ordinarily I ride 11,000 to 12,000 kilometers a season. But to date have only managed 2765. I sure hope we have a long and warm fall so I can get those new Bridgestone tires broken in.
