Riding in the heat is going to be our biggest problem. The last few days of hot sun have given us a taste, or a forewarning! On Saturday most of the riders went out for 85 miles training. In Greece the temperatures could easily reach 40 or more in the shade. We’re planning to start as early as we can in order to get some miles in before the sun starts to burn. Drinking water is key. You can easily use 2 litres an hour. But riding in the sun is also glorious. Everything feels smooth and strong. If you are cycling at 20mph then in effect you have a 20mph wind cooling you down.
