Many years back when I used to "commute" through the hot valleys of
British Columbia in a Triumph GT6 (toaster oven on wheels)  I would
soak a folded paper towel and lay it across my forehead. The wetness
made it stick (until it needed replenishing) and the evaporative
cooling (with the windows open) kept my head cool and alert.  Cheap
as borscht and very effective.
