"You ride your bike in this?"
This is the question that I often get if the weather is less than perfect. I have said it before, I think summer is the worst season to be a bike commuter. I have to ride slow trying to slow down the drips of perspiration. But they still come allowing me to have to take a bath in my workplace's bathroom sink. I have been trying to leave a little earlier so I have some time to cool down before I report to my cubicle but that doesn't even seem to help.
SO what should you do?
- Stay hydrated. I am drinking 5-6 liters of water a day in this God forsaken heat!
- Don't ride in the same clothes that you plan on wearing to work.
- Take it like a rat all the time knowing that the worst season for riding your bike is immediately followed by the best season, Fall.
