Got over 600K on the books this weekend and proud to say I was ATGATT the whole time. Took the liner out of my leather jacket (obviously) and opened all the vents and I was amazed at how comfortable I was - got a little warm during the peak hours today, but never felt overheated, and considering I was wearing long pants, a leather riding jacket, gloves, etc...no complaints. The heat I tolerate decent even in gear, humidity is what kills me.
Saw a TON of squiddly riders out there though including one young lady in Port Hope on a sportbike who was in shorts, a flimsy little tank top and what I think was flip-flops.

Yeah - the low humidity really helped today ....mesh all around and only got uncomfortable when the traffic slowed on the slab which was not too long ...pity anyone stuck in it late afternoon riding into the sun....

Loving it.
In another 20 weeks or so we'll all be complaining about having had to put our bikes away, the cold, and the snow. I soak up the nice weather like a sponge when it's here, no complaints!

I got a small Camelback type unit at Bass Pro Shops for $40. I then ditched the knapsack as I put the plastic bladder in my Moab mesh jacket rear pocket with the water line fed through a small hole in the liner and up and over my left shoulder. Holds 1.5 liter of water and you can buy the bladder separate from the knapsack for about $25. Like most accessories I purchase I always kick myself a bit for waiting so long to buy them. This is really good value and being properly hydrated on these brutal hot days is important.

I too rode all winter, but last winter was the exception to the norm.

I only ride in my t-shirt and jeans... why would I dress up like an astronaut to go riding in 30C weather? I always wondered why so many of you were adamant to wear all that stuff... now I know why, you guys ride recklessly and stupidly so you expect an accident.. I dont.
