Days between hard/long efforts

[Susan Otcenas]

Have you thought about a hydration pack? When it is hot I tend to drink more which helps keep me cool, if I wear my Camelbak. Also ice in the bra and wet cool wings help. Have a great ride.

Unfortunately, I have neck issues. At that distance, the weight on my shoulders would exacerbate the neck problems, so I can't wear one. Plus, in that kind of heat I think I'd roast in a Camelback.

I *love* the ice in the bra suggestion, though. I'm sure I'll have ample opportunity to try that one out!
