I have ridden motorbikes in really hot temperatures, once to Hoover Dam was very hot, also through Death Valley. You have zips to open and get a bit of air through so its not so bad. Also I have resorted a few times to having a cool vest on next to the skin - this is wet and even put in the fridge before putting on. It really does work well.
It was really hot riding in China though because at times we couldn't ride fast enough for the ventilation to get through!
@dkbarnett Sounds as if you have had some exciting rides. Death Valley can be exceedingly hot. China sounds like fun. I remember in the cities the traffic was crazy with cars, scooters and bikes going every which way, but the highway I travelled on was almost empty of traffic.
The traffic in the cities sure was crazy!! Some of the roadworks we went through were crazy too. 50 k at a time sort of stuff, so riding through it for hours. It was great fun though!
