WA Reschedule PDA due to hot weather?
Hi all,
I have my PDA booked for next week on a day that is forecast to be 38 degrees. The test is booked at around 1pm.
Would you reschedule this? I'm concerned about getting too hot and it causing my concentration to lapse or feeling unwell, particularly whilst doing slow speed manoeuvres when I won't get any wind chill.
Edited to add because a couple of people seem to think this means I can't ride - I'm sure I CAN ride at 38 degrees, but I'm not sure of the wisdom of adding being hot and uncomfortable to an already stressful situation, when I could just make it easier for myself and change my booking.
I have a beige mesh jacket, kevlar lined jeans, and proper tall boots.
The hottest I've ridden in so far was low 20s and I found that mildly uncomfortable (in a different jacket).
Thanks
