Only to the beach or in town. Last time I've done a longer ride was during a cool change. Maybe I should try, but don't really feel like it. Summer is for sitting on one's butt all day long.

No, no. Summer is for long rides, that's when it's warm enough. Only started around late April.

Yeah, wish they had that available. They have it on their end somewhere or NCDC has it. Hard to come across.

Not easy to find. Locally our highest dew point is 83F/28C in July 1999. I'm guessing the highest in Illinois has to be around 86F/30C. I'll search
