The Tour of Kansas City race that been going on forever. I could look it up, but I think it’s over 35 years. This year, for some unknown reason, the race is being held twice. Today thru Sunday. Then again in August. So, instead of being up in Wisconsin in the heat and humidity, I’m down here in a lot more heat and a lot more humidity. I’m not big on using the heat index thing, but it is beginning to make sense. Today, the heat index is predicted to be 116. That is a pretty big number. One that I’m not too thrilled about. Seems like the short 2 hours rides I’ve done this week have been miserable. And the heat index has been around 105. Anyway, these are all new courses. It should be interesting. Next weekend is the Tour of Lawrence, which is going to be a really super 3-day race. So, 6 races in the next 11 days. Kansas bicycle racing is happening.
And hotels are super cheap in KC. $23 for Homestead Suites. Believe it.
