Gotcha, always good to stay hydrated.
I used to always need a towel to cover the bike and although I had a fan, after the warming up sweat would start dripping continuously for the threshold and above workouts.
Recently I have a blower type fan that I can keep in the lowest position for enough cooling that only a couple of drops hit the ground.
That still leaves me some margin when the weather heats up.
