A bit further up Kelbaker Road, I stop again to refill my Camelbak, which has run dry again; any excuse for a break is good

I'm going through a lot of water in today's heat. I'm not in shape for this yet. I've ridden the 10-ton bike before in temperatures over 100F, but later in a trip when I was thus tougher, and acclimated to the heat.
