    Definitely what Shawn said. It's nearly every saturday, we even did it last saturday in the rain. Both groups. The slowest group is a little touch and go, but for the most part, if the big ride is happening, the slower ride is happening.

    For me the lemon is just there for flavor. The 90g of carbs and salt keep me fueled for my rides.

    Gels, chews, etc.

    I make high carb lemonade for my bottles (water, 1/2 lemon, 60-90 grams of sugar, and a tablespoon of salt), then i like cliff blocks when its not cold out.

    Banning e-bikes from bike trails

    That's going to be a near impossible to maintain that law. Just let folks ride.

    Welcome dude. If you're interested in getting used to riding with other folks, The Bike Surgeon of Southern Illinois in Carterville does a road group ride on Saturday mornings (8am for the faster 17-20 mph (2 hours), 9am for 10-15mph (1 hour)).

    Do you compete on organized rides?

    Only ride to the sky is a organized ride that isn't a race.

    Best hot weather cycling kit

    I got the summer tops, white kinda helps but at the end of the day it all sucks. It's just getting the body adapted to the heat

    Yeah, Shawn Hargis and I rode down there from Herrin. It was a good ride, definitely not an easy finish to 110 miles. Good riding down there though

    Will you bike in this heat?

    Ride early or late.

    Do you compete on organized rides?

    To quote the Zwift community, "if there is a start line and a finish line, its a race." Tbh, i keep my organized rides to just that. No glory in "racing" other folks that aren't racing.

    Best hot weather cycling kit

    I haven't found anything that helps, maybe doing some heat adaptation training before it gets too hot will help
