First ride of the new month -- it's a scorcha!

  Scorcha is NY-ese for "hot!"
  Yeah it's the hottest summer in history.
  A climate-change denier adds "that we know of."
  Yes, there is a conspiracy. Back in the late 1800s some liberal limp-wristed Obama-lovers wiped a whole decade off the record. Why? Because it was much hotter than this summer was going to be. They just knew it. And they did it to piss off the idiots of the 21st century. Glad we got to the bottom of that one. :-)
  Anyway....
  10.84 miles. 56 minutes.
  When it's this hot, even if it isn't a record, you slow down and take it easy.
