It was a hot day today. I had the rear windows popped out on the BMW for the drive home and the side window down. Got rather noisy and with the warm wind on my face made my eyes tired. But once I got to the coast it cooled off and then a marine layer came in up against the mountains and it was nice and cool for most of the drive from Goleta on down to Camarillo. Cool enough to roll my window up for less noise. Too bad I can't close the rear windows while driving.
It was hot enough that I was craving sandals but those are not the best things to be doing any mountainbiking with. I could make do with just getting to class, though. One guy rides a fixie barefoot on many days. He does not have spiky metal pedals like I do, though. Otherwise I might have followed his lead today.
I have to say that while California can get pretty weird I like the laid back attitude in SLO. Bare feet, shorts, T-shirt. In class. Pretty sweet.
