I have started turning the hose on myself just before I start my afternoon rides. Helps during the ride for 10 to 15 minutes or so. Especially when moving to have air flowing.

Just don't make the mistake I made last week when I forgot to let the water run a while before squirting myself with it. A water hose on the sunny side of the house gets extremely hot!
