August 1st: Pre-ride predictions

Tomorrow is the third ride with the CycloChina group, Weather reaching into the high 90's - with the high of 98, winds 4mph south...  It's going to be hell out there as soon as we hit the climb.  A big group of 30 is anticipated, filling the bus completely.  I will opt. for the 55km of hell instead of the 85 tims time - more tomorrow.
