Pardon me for the temporary tangent (my experience was with mild hypothermia on a cool day); Trevtassie , I'm really curious about that 26" off road tourer you listed in your bikes -- what is it?

take a cool sit bath, or cold shower. When my temps are over the top after a hard long ride that I either didn't plan out enough hydration or get enough food the day before, I will drink ice cold water with ice & fresh lemons in it. I also don't eat anything heavy for the next 24 hours. Once made the mistake of making & having a chicken breast salad that contained fruits, nuts, other vegetables & it was shortly regurgitated. Should have just left out the nuts, & lessened the fruits. I don't use dressings.
