no thanks!

My ideal temp for cycling is 16 deg - warm enough for shirt/shorts not so hot that you sweat buckets and it saps energy...

Cold isn't a problem for me but if the temp gets too much above 30C then I have problems walking, never mind riding! :shock:

You SE Aussies need to harden up! :lol:

In all seriousness, I hate it when it gets that hot. It's no coincidence I ride less in summer... :x
