Aint that the truth!!!!

The hottest I have ridden in was 117f with 86% humidity. It was horrible. Nah... it was painful. Even the most hardcore riders got in only about 50% of the available track time. Us coaches were forcing people off the track (to the paddock) due to heat causing various riding issues. And this comes from a rider who loves to ride in 98f with 96% humidity...., seems there is a hard line somewhere for the most of us.

Not recommended... it's near the human limits, good call. +1 to when knowing when to NOT ride.
