No. :-) The idea just popped into my head when I re-read my what's next
posting so I thought I would ask it.

Cooled down now, but it was dangerously hot for a couple of days.

I hate even normal hot days big time. :-(

I can easily do 30km+ with a full backpack on a cool day with reasonable
tracks underneath, but you are lucky to get 10-15km out of me on a normal
hot day with no cover, even with plenty of hydration. :-(

I didn't even think of going outside during lunch in the heat we had
this week it was that bad.

Simon.
