Winter has arrived

[Irish in Oz]

Not always Irish, I rode in 4 this year, around 6.30. 48 was in 2014, not 16, i just checked.

I live on the Central Coast between Sydney and Newcastle so we get an ocean breeze but that heatwave in 2014 I was in Leeton NSW was similar temp couldn't sleep for about three nights.

Irish, that 48 day was a Saturday. Wife at work in A/C, me home. I had 12 swims and drank 24 stubbies. All i could do. Not sure of my mpg that day, not a lot.

We are tougher over here.

Yeah that's what people who live in shitty climates always say

[Hooli]

Nah shitty climates are the ones that regularly go above 25c, that's just pure hell.

[KiwiCol]

It's all what ya get used to, cold n damp or warm n dry.  Know which I prefer . . .

[Irish in Oz]

Sounds like your going all soft. I still remember the times on the trawler fishing the Irish Sea off Dublin in the summer.

I can change that if I choose but after 30+years I need to build my strength up again.

Heatwave predicted here, starting Sunday. Not looking forward to it.

Grog as a young man in my mid twenties the heat never bothered me at all, but as I got towards the fifty mark I started noticing it, late fifties I stopped working because of it, April to September in Oz will suit me now.

Coming right here  (NZ)...   tho still getting lots O drizzle. 

Got a window of fine today so will get out on the ride on mower (with my music in headphones). Save the ride for after the next rain ,maybe Wed.?

[Johno]

Not quite summer here yet but 41/42 today in western Sydney and the same forecast again tomorrow.

I agree with Irish April to September are the best riding months. Early morning rides are best in the warmer months here.

[grog]

Johno, we're supposed to get same tomorrow.

[Johno]

Grog,

same down this way as well. 43 at Sydney airport around 4pm this afternoon.

I can hear the hum of the AirCons from here.
