Thanks for the tips...I knew some of the tips however i thought the ladies here may have some more...

In regards to shade..i can't say there's enough of that on the routes avail....There is some though...!

I haven't given up even if it's a bit hot. I'm happy to slowly adapt so i can see what mistakes i need to change. (sunscreen & water so far)

Fluid..i'm going to add a cage to my bike and drink more.

Getting out earlier....can't sleep in here..sun's up at 5am or a bit ealier as we don't have daylight savings..

I remember the sunscreen and lots of it...I've got the slip, slop, slap embedded in my mind.

Thanks again ladies,
