That's some very serious temperature. You have to acclimate, a bunch of preparation then execute with sufficient cooling and hydration to (somewhat) safely do that kind of temp. I've ridden hard in 115 degrees, but 129 is twice as bad with twice the heat transfer rate which makes it easily 6-8 times more dangerous. Without prep, riding through that at 60 degrees would leave you a desiccated husk after 15-20 minutes.
I'm down. I'll see you all there...in February.
Real air temp. That is about the point where the face shield remains barely cracked.
That's a mistake.
They've been saying that for decades...just like people have been yammering about how Southern California is going to run out of water or the entire state is only a single earthquake away from becoming an island.
Sounds like some people wanted to live in the mountainous sticks and all that that implies. Arizona isn't the only place that happens. Shit, we're suburban here and half the town is on well water...because they want to be.
When I was in college a billion years ago a friend from AZ said just buy land 5 miles out of Phoenix and in 5 years the town will be there... that was the beforetimes...So you are saying buying home there is a good long term investment??
