Here in Colorado, it was like the year without a summer. Very wet at the start of summer and very cool. Last year we had 28 days in a row over 90. This year we had two days. They say it was because of El Nino.

So I suppose full leathers will be out this summer then?

You guys need to get one of those 'Through Flow' jackets if you haven't got one already!!

Even in the UK it'd take me about 20 mins to get my trousers off

So long as there's no ice , gimme the cold any day!
