- Carry plenty of sunscreen.
- Carry plenty of fluids. Keep them out of the sunlight. If leaving from home, fill a water bottle the night before and put it in the freezer. Then you’ll have cool water for hours.
- Make sure you have good sunglasses to provide ultraviolet light protection for your eyes.
- Don’t drink alcohol, and avoid coffee or sodas containing caffeine-these can increase the rate of water loss.
- Don’t take salt tablets. They draw water into the stomach instead of distributing it to the rest of the body.
- Check with your doctor to see if any medication you are taking increases water loss, and ask whether you can do without it for a few days.
- Most importantly, take frequent rest stops. Remember, this is a motorcycle ride, not a forced march.
