I ride in the heat with an armored mesh jacket, ventilated Indie Ridge gloves and boots, and usually a neck gaiter to keep the sun off of my neck. When I reach a stop I often take the jacket off and put on a pair of UPF 50+ sun sleeves. I frequently get asked "Aren't you hot in that?" by guys who are sweating their buns off in t-shirts because they have nothing protecting them from the sun.
@RidingandWrenching
@RidingandWrenching 2 дня назад
The vented Indie Ridge gloves are awesome! I have a pair of those too. I had people look at me like I was crazy putting my mesh jacket on. One person asked me if it was hot....I said yes, it's 100 degrees.

I live in the northwest. We don’t have many 100 degree days here! But this is still all good information for our version of “hot” days. Sunburn! Oh yea: I rode my brand new Street Glide from Everett, WA to Death Valley this past May. On my way back my right wrist was painful and red. It took me awhile to figure it out: I wear a watch on my left wrist, but the small area of exposed skin between my mesh glove and mesh riding jacket on my right wrist got sunburned! Put sunscreen on all exposed skin! 😄

Cue, One trick I’ve learned riding in Texas to stay cool: At gas stops, get a water and take it into the beer cooler to drink. Spending 7 minutes in the cooler while drinking water brings down your core temperature.

When I was in the army stationed at Ft. Stewart in the mid 80s we were near the ocean. There was a rumor that if you got sunburnt and went to sick call you could get an article 15. Fortunately my buddies and I never found out if it was true or not. One thing I do to keep cool is that I wear a thing long-sleeved shirt over a tshirt. When at a fuel stop I soak the long-sleeved shirt in water. Wow does it feel good untill it evaporates. A couple of yrs ago I rode to Death Valley. I soaked my shirt as usual but it was so hot that the shirt would evaporate within ten minutes.
@JohnSmith-de2mz
@JohnSmith-de2mz 4 дня назад
Good show, I live in Hawaii and even in this heat I cover up with lower arm covers and a mixture of Almond oil and red rasberry oil for my face and neck that the helmut doesn't cover. Read about that a couple years ago and it works as a safe natural sun screen. I had told you a few stories before about traveling back in the day on a ShovelHead long distances with my buddies. When you mentioned getting sunburned same thing happened to my friend Jack who is Black, he learned that lesson too.

My Bilt Blaze2 jacket is black, but made of mesh & such. My modular helmet in gray metallic has 3 closeable vents that move air through the helmet. Defrosters for the inside of the face shield, but they don't work until you get up to 14-15MPH. So, I crack the face shield open a lil bit and that works fine. I also have the Bilt Pro Tourer Air Boots with zippers on both sides and room in the uppers for your cuffs, should you choose to do so.

One thing I would like to add and that is when to recognise your physical and cognitive decline when riding in extreme heat. Reaction times slow down along with mental processing. All heat related and a lot to do with dehydration and physical fitness. Aged riders are much more susceptible to it. From one retired sailor to another, stay safe. Great video.

One guy teased me and asked if I was warm so i showed him my FRXG jacket with removable layers which left it perforated. What I like about it is I can conceal carry (yes, I am permitted) and it has a deep pocket. I asked around and can't find any perforated chaps which I think would be great.

I got my triumph synthetic mesh jacket and it keeps me dry, so it's working. I recommend Ghost intra workout. It does have taurine that may keep some people up, but it's full of BCAAs and electrolytes, which some of you plants may crave. Gatorade always works. Stay hydrated. Keep up electrolytes. Drive excessive speeds... Or safe speeds. You do you

It’s been 114 degrees here almost daily for the last 3 weeks and we have another 2 months to go. This year I went with a DOT half helmet and the Ergodyne cooling vest. I haven’t been able to find a good mesh jacket so I’ve been squiding it. I too have used the wet the jacket method but it dries out within 10-15 minutes due to the highway riding. What I used to do was use a Camelback type water bladder and suck the cold water out and spit out, down my jacket, continuously wetting it down.

Great tips Cue. I love the “God’s suntan lotion” comment. 😱. I’ve seen the same thing when working along the Gulf Coast with another guy. He kept insisting he was good when I suggested sunscreen, me being the snowman of the duo. Needless to say and northwest Florida sun baked that poor guy and he paid the price for 5 days or so.

Good video. I wear Icon mesh overpants with shorts underneath them. I find this to be cooler than jeans, but my Klim mesh jacket is an oven to wear even it I am only wearing a tank top underneath the jacket and having it partially unzipped. Any suggestions as last year while returning from Atlanta in July, I got heat exhaustion? After cooling down in Wendy’s, I took the jacket off and wore my hi viz safety vest which has a level 2 back protector. My boots are my work boots-Timberland Pro Boondocks which are waterproof and with the reinforced heel and toe cap they offer better protection than my Harley Davidson boots. Gloves are CE2 rated from Sedici. Full face AGV helmet. I have a cooling vest (soaked in water), but it only lasts for one hour. It is a pain to wear all of this gear, but after watching a long time RU-vidR who had an accident at 80 mph all was well except his work boots failed him and cost him his right foot. The gear was destroyed, but it saved his life.
@RidingandWrenching
@RidingandWrenching 2 дня назад
Riding is dangerous, even with gear. The only thing we can do is to mitigate the danger by taking classes, practicing, riding safe, and wearing appropriate gear. I try to avoid riding on extremely hot days, but when I do I try to keep the sun off my skin. I keep the visor open on my helmet (but that increases the risk of being hit by something). Bottom line is that each rider has to decide how much risk is tolerable.

Celsius gave great thought to making useful temperature gauge......he came up with 0 water freezes, 100 water boiles Kelvin thought he could do better.....0 is absolute zero and then increments are same as Celsius This guy Fahrenheit came along and said he could make a much more useful scale.........and he did, do you know what the parameters are that define his scale? Hint: its NOT to do with water freezing or boiling There's helmets that the chin guard goes all the way to back of your head.....one thing really handy in helmets is built-in sun shield, not as good as good sunglasses but much easier to flip up than remove sunglasses In Army I had couple bouts with heat exhaustion, now too hot is much lower temp than it used to be.....and because I'm old too cold is much higher temp than it used to be 100* I won't be out

Great info! I don't know the answer to your question without cheating. I avoid riding in extreme temps....it's not fun. But sometimes you don't have a good alternative.

Oh yea.....I get raccoon eyes on long motorcycle trips due to tanning. Black people need to learn more about protecting our skin since we don't burn as easily. I have (white) friends that will burn as soon as they walk outside. They tend to be much more aware of sunburn than I am. I generally only use sun block if I'm on vacation.....especially if I got to Hawaii!😂
