Great when you have access to a shower....

I often grab a couple of ice cubes out of my cooler, put 'em in my hand and rub them over my scalp as they melt.

I'll also open the front of my suit and pour water over my chest.

Other tricks, too... I wear a skull cap or balaclava when I ride and between sessions I'll put it in the cooler, below the water line. I put it on wet and ice water + evaporation keeps me cool for awhile.
