46 degrees!  Fark that, hope your air con works good in that truck!

Nothing can keep up with these temperatures Col it's the extreme end of our highest & will only last a couple of days 🙏
We've already had a few thunderstorms tonight not predicted 🧐🧐🧐 I wonder how the forecasters keep their jobs 🤔
If nothing else it's good for weight loss 👍👍

There's no doubt that climate is changing although I'm not 100% convinced that it is all down to human activity - geology shows that the planet has gone through warm and cold cycles during its existance.

In Britain we don't seem to have had a winter in the proper sense this year - OK it means I'm more inclined to go for a run on a bike with tempratures around 8-10c but I miss those bright clear frosty mornings, it has just seemed plain dull for the last three months.

As for weather forecasters, I sometimes think they would struggle to predict when their lunchtime would be...

How is the handling of a GSX with snow chains fitted?  :laugh:

5 years ago I rode home from work (16 km) in 2-3" snow. It was horrible with Michelin 3:s.
There was only one "S" Mercedes I had to overtake :grin:
