While back in CNY there is a cold snap with accumulating snow predicted for the higher elevations, here in TX we are melting. Our Day 5 ride through TX was a scorcher. Most of the day it was sunny and around 97 degrees. We won't shed the protective gear, especially at these speeds (Interstate in TX is 75). So, we need a way to stay cool. The cooling vest is the answer. Soaked with cold water, lowers air temp around your core by a good 10 degrees. I add a wet bandanna for around my neck.

Surprisingly the Mighty KLR & Mr Grey seem to not mind the heat. Engine temps are holding while both bikes continue to eat up the road.
