100% agree. Biking in nature feels so much fresher than in the city.

Cities are a hot oven.

    I haven’t, but is it more than the diffference between fields and forests? Though forests aren’t just shade, the trees/plants also cool themselves and their surroundings.

  • Yeah its way more. In a field the grass is reflecting alot of the heat, or using the energy for photosynthesis. In a city the asphalt literally works like a pizza oven. All the cement and asphalt absorb all that heat and get heated to insane temperatures, and then radiate that heat outwards all evening/night.
