XTreme Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Going to be pretty warm here..... .....but appears to be cooling a bit next week. Makes no odds to me anyway cos I don't have my bike, plus I've got work to do. So not a lot happening here! What about you guys that don't own brakeless Teutonic Oil Belchers? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 The heatwave is set to continue this weekend. 38C today, but dropping to 30C on Saturday and Sunday. Long range forecast looks like it will be hovering around 30C for the next 2 weeks. Will probably get out on the bike at some point over the next week. Seen a few places that I fancy visiting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abit warm....I'd be fucking melting in that heat, mid 20s is much more than enough on the heat scale don't need anymore than that. Give me winter anyway and I'll be much more happy! Can always warm up but it's a mission to cool down in this desert heat. In other news I don't really have any plans for the weekend apart from do as little as possible especially if its this warm 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, that’s not desert heat. 30° in the Sahara feels a lot more manageable than 30° in Germany or the UK, up north temperatures feels hotter than here and more south. Plus you brits aren’t really cut to endure proper heat, same as I don’t like riding bikes in under 10°c. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 On the other hand, 10º in the winter feels mild over there, while here it feels freezing. I remember being in 0 to 5º in Germany and thinking it felt a lot warmer than what it showed in the car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tym Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Ive been to Death Valley, burned my hand on a doorknob cause it was in the sunshine. That place was hot, not as hot as Guam however. Guam was fuckin oven broiler on 550 hot. Now i just gets hot in Connecticut, almost to fucking muggy hot somethimes, then summers over after a few weeks of that.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas here it's nothing like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More weather talk for you @Pedro @Pedro.....the thing is with us Brits (particularly for motorcyclists) is our lives are determined by the weather. So we focus on it more than you. You're guaranteed pretty decent conditions for most of the year......but if you're in Britain you're not even guaranteed decent conditions in the Summer. So it's a case of grabbing what you can, then being laid up for indefinite periods. Unless you want to splash around in the pissing rain of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
