I was hoping to ride to work tomorrow, but I've got to take my 7 year old to school first. So, in order for it to work I would have to drive him to school (right near my work), drive home, get the bike and ride back to work. Plus, its supposed to be 104 degrees tomorrow. And no free stuff along the way. it ain't happenin'.

It's 63º here right now. Absolutely perfect.

Far NorCal is usually paradise in the spring, rarely getting over 80 degrees (it's hell in summer reaching 115-117 @times). This is really strange to see temps well above 100 in May. Spring was all of 2 weeks long this year.

Yes, but not so perfect when I was visiting there last November and the daytime highs were in the high 20's while it was 65 degrees back home.
Spring and summer in Utah are awfully hard to beat in the weather department. |

If it would be in the mid to high 60s year round, I would be very happy.
