Why are there just zero mentions of the actual temperature she was exposed to? It wouldve been close to 40°C most likely.
Yeah she was around Paris so something between 40 and 43, plus the heat from the road which is easily 55 to 60 (according to airports tarmac temperatures).
And the heat wave is supposed to move east as she was, so I get it, there’s no point in following a fucking heatwave on a bike.
