Yeah, I wonder what you are wearing now...I also have a Joe Rocket mesh jacket, and as long as I am moving, it works great. Also, the air vents in your helmet are going to help out a lot...keep your melon as cool as possible.

Yeah, i have a joe rocket rasp jacket, its textile/mesh i guess... I dont plan on taking it off... It's tempting though because of all the people that dont wear gear around here... I mean, none of them. Unless it's cold out, then no one is riding xcept for me lol.

Ive said this on another thread but my leather jacket has two huge vents. One on each side that runs from arm pit tohip.It vents reallywell. But I guess Ill find out how well it does when it gets to about 90 this summer.

Keep yourself hydrated. It helps quite a bit in those really hot days. If your looking at buying new gear, buy something made of lighter colors, They reflect the sun instead of absorbing the heat from it.
