Strange. I can't stand the cold weather-I feel ill but in the summer I can do 10 mile jogs or ride and I don't sweat?
Probably the African genes in there switching on from 1000's of yrs of being dormant.
Or I just like the heat and hate the cold?
Global warming here I come!
Seriously-check your jersey-thin, breathable and high wicking for summer.
Gutr available in Ireland: http://www.irishfit.eu/sweatgutrmain.html
And in the UK here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Swear-FBW00-SweatGUTR/dp/B000YDK968
There is another UK site here: http://www.sweathead.co.uk
I have a Gutr I bought it just to see if it worked, surprisingly its actually a decent bit of kit if you can get over the fact you have a drainpipe on your forehead. you don't even notice it once its on and is cooler (temperature wise) than a buff.
+1 for Sweatsucker, works a treat
The zen is a horrible sweat box of a helmet, a bucket has better venting.
Buy a decent helmet.
+1 for the Gutr i bought one in the states 2 years ago and i would recommend them
still using the sweat gutr, it's great, channels sweat down the side of yuor face, or more accurately for me, into your helmet straps.
Wouldn't mind using that sweat band thingy above, looks a bit bulky under helmet, does it compress ok? I've had a few sweatbands that i couldn't use well with helmets as i'm in between sizes with a 56cm head.
Amen to Sweat GUTR!
kingtut: Nothing wrong with my Xen, it has plenty ventilation. And it works great with a sweat gutr.
I love the fact that the Gutr website has testimonials from a swimmer and a kayaker.
I want a Fremen Stillsuit... sadly not on amazon or the bay yet.
Get a cheap buff-alike (Oxford brand from motorcycle shops for example)

Keep two for proper buff usage and cut the other into 2" thick strips to use as headbands - you'll get 6-8 out of a standard size buff. They soak up tons and prevent drips, simple enough to carry a couple spare if you have a stop, no-one likes putting a sweaty headband back on after all. If you cut at less than about 2" they tend to roll in on themselves which then makes them less comfy.
bassspine: forget the stillsuit, how about some spice to blue up my eyes!
Sweat GUTR is still going strong!
simon: Well I believe swimmers and kayakers also train by not just swimming or kayaking... e.g. running or cycling.
it's the helmet. i've got one and i have to remember not to raise my eyebrows after sweating as it compresses the padding and wrings the sweat out all over my face. horrible. slightly improved by a buff, but from now the zen is for winter. (good timing).
