In great heat, it's not just drinking that helps, but deliberate cooling. If you relieve your body a little along the way, you stay focused for longer – without giving up protection.

Stay cool, stay protected

  • A wet cloth: A damp neck tube cools you noticeably.
  • Use the ventilation: Open the vents on your jacket and helmet.
  • Seek shade: Breaks in the shade, not in blazing sun.

The protective gear stays on – cool down instead of stripping off. If you want to learn to stay clear-headed in the heat, you'll find suitable coaching offers here.
