    Dream item would be broad spectrum 30+ sunscreen that doesn't pick up the road grime

    I am not in the summer hemisphere, but summers are brutal here.

    How about:
    • Moisture wicking headwear/headband
    • insulated water bottle
    • small microfiber towel to wipe sweat/salt off
    • socks with really good ventilation. I love the Aireators by Defeet.
    • If you know a good sunscreen, share that!
    • Lip balm with sun protection

    water

    I've never seen an insulated water bottle nor used one.

    I'll have to do some serious searching then...

    CC- The only ones I know of are Polar bottles. They help, I think caligurl had some suggestions for freezing them. That is my preferred bottle especially in our hot summers.

    How about some snacks for her bike bag? A tube of foot lotion? A travel bottle of hand sanitizer?
