33 here yesterday, went for a spin up here where it was down to 24, one of my regular loops
Le Mont Gerbier-de-Jonc
Côté Géo : Majestueux et reconnaissable entre tous, le Mont Gerbier-de-Jonc s’élève à 1 551 mètres au cœur du plateau ardéchois. Ce suc volcanique phonolitique, au sommet en forme de pain de sucre, est un véritable symbole de la Montagne d’Ardèche, tant par sa silhouette singulière que par son...

Not certain if I’m going to press on toward Turkey now. Realistically it only makes sense riding early mornings in the heat 
35 is too hot . Was wearing my Marrakesh in Brittany just now at 27 degrees and it was ok. Don’t like it much hotter.I’m here now - it’s fucking fantastic
Beaune showing 35 this weekend.
Get some use out the Marrakesh jacket !
I remember flying to Dubai many years ago ( when I couldn’t avoid the shit hole ) and was speaking to a passenger in the galley . I asked if she was on business but she said she was going for a holiday . I mentioned it was a tad hot but she replied she liked the heat . They’d never been to Dubai until then .It was up to 49 degrees during the day and a cool 32 at night . Fucking muppets .
I’m also taking the Marrakesh next month - how warm do you think it will be in India ?
A balmy 27C here in Bad Leuterberg today but going hotter towards weekend with chance of thunderstorms !
Oh and the Chunnel was not doing ees or indeed stamping passports
We didn’t bother challenging the stasi we like living on the edge and even the bikes are parked outside with no butter in sight
Turkey doesn't appear to be affected, its generally France Spain and Italy. Although getting there looks like low 30'sNot certain if I’m going to press on toward Turkey now. Realistically it only makes sense riding early mornings in the heat
We have had high 30`s for a fair while now, we are expecting 40`s from Sunday, not unusual for June.
162KM West from me on the coast, it will be 26 - 28....I wonder where I might be going next week.
2 hours each way....

It was 34 today towards colmar France.
It was fine.
I know it was warm because the wife took the liner out of her jacket and turned her heated seat off !

Between 0 and 30 ish
Seriously.
If it’s in the 30s at sea level ish then it’ll be zero or below at 18000 ft assuming an adiabatic lapse rate of 2 degs per 1000 ft
Hence why the Rukka down is coming too !!Between 0 and 30 ish

Tad warm for me but better riding here than at home.

Will it be dusty on your India trip? I’ve done Chile and Argentina a few times and the dust on the gravel roads can be bad if there’s other traffic around. I was reminded of it yesterday on a section of road in Bosnia that was being repaired and the trucks were kicking up shitloads of dust. Hot n dusty

Buff over your nose and mouth saves coughing up bricks for days after - I learned the hard way
