So I had some errands to run this afternoon and seeing as the weather is so inviting, I dug the bike out for a blat!
Planning on the rush hour crazys I kitted up in my textiles and headed off. I expected it would be hot but …. Sodding hell! Hot isn’t the word! Now I have ridden in high temps before but I couldn’t believe the heat!
Upon returning home I quickly got my textile jacket off, at that point I realised….
… I still had my thermal inner layer in!
DOH!
July 17, 2013 at 6:26 pm #66497imperialdataKeymasterLol, it was flipping hot today, definitely too hot for thermals. I was going to buy an air conditioner for the office, spent an hour doing research online and then decided to make my own with a fan, some frozen water bottles and some ice packs.
It dropped the room temperature by 3.4 degrees and looks… err… interesting, but let’s say I shalln’t be marketing it just yet.
No, I haven’t got any pictures
