I’m already thinking of heat; and for hot rides, this Mission Cooling Neck Gaiter is a product that I’d like to try. My hand still can’t tolerate rides over about 10 miles; but when I can do 40-mile rides again, I’ll be out in the heat!

On top of that, I’m considering RAGBRAI 2024. The week-long event means averaging about 65-66 miles per day; and to do that comfortably distance-wise, I need to get comfortable with riding 40-50 miles per day. And that’s before taking terrain into account! RAGBRAI is actually pretty hilly.

So of course I’m already thinking of heat; and a cooling neck gaiter is probably not being a “sissy”; it’s just common sense. I don’t want to collapse from heat exhaustion!

The Mission Cooling Neck Gaiter is 100% polyester; and machine washable. Dimebsions: 21 x 10 inches,.
