Hi Everyone,
Was reading a post on travelingtwo.com yesterday about staying cool when riding in the heat. Thought I'd throw this out and see what everyone does. They tend to soak their Jersey or Shirt with water. Realize not everyone wants to ride dripping wet. I always carry a bandana and will soak that and tie it around my neck. I do own one of the bandanas with the gel inside that will swell up and stay cool but it is heavy when wet so I save that for backpacking.

If I am riding hills and a creek or lake are nearby I have no qualms about dunking my head in the water. If I am riding from my house, I will get my head wet before I put on my helmet. I don't carry a camel back and tend to keep my water bottles for drinking so won't soak with them unless I know I can refresh the bottle.

What do you do?
