Here is a comment from the local weather channel...

We have now set seven record high temperatures in the last 8 days. Prior to Wednesday, the earliest that we hit 87 in Grand Rapids was April 26, 1915!

I finally did some exercise with weights, got it done quick and it went well, did upper body only.
I did a warm-up prior with the ramp-test bike, getting better there too.
Historical ramp tests:
Aerobic Efficiency (Ramp test) 50,100,150,200 watt efforts
3 minutes each followed by 1 minute rest HR at end of each period
Date----3min--6min--9min--12min-13min--Total
