I went for a ride today... damn it was hot, not a good idea to ride out west on a forecasted 40degree day... anyway, i survived it... at one point it hit 45 degrees
the heat really took it out of me... i had less probs with the gong ride than this 77km ride (meadowbank - prospect reservior loop)
i had my hydration pack loaded up but still ran out of water, lucky shops were everywhere... never had such a prob with water before and I felt my first cramp since a long long time
some people cope by:
- not riding and just staying home
- keep hydrated
- ride in shady areas
- ride under freeways (M4)
any other suggestions?
what do you do?
