After reading this article on air pollution and exercise I think I'll start being a little more careful about when and how hard I ride. It's the Code Orange and Red days that are killers. After riding over 40 miles in 90 degree heat with a blanket of haze in the air, we felt pretty lousy. Then I started reading up on the effects of ozone and other pollutants on the lungs. My nagging cough and shortness of breath aren't such a mystery any more. I've known about the ill effects, but somehow thought they would never occur to me. I'm going to keep riding, but will moderate the amount during the really grungy days. Either that or move to a cleaner area.
