Big sharn, I have been giving this a lot of thought lately. When your on a bike, the wind is already hitting you in the face. The fan may be a redundancy. I racked my brain to figure out the next element.... the next variable that can add an extra degree (no pun intended) of coolness to your situation.
I began to think of the properties of water. Why do we sweat? I recalled that water absorbs the heat from your body and when it evaporates it carries the heat away. Maybe you can implement some sort of misting system to spray water on your face as you ride your bike.
As an added bonus you could also install a fan so you can stay double cool when you are at a stop light.
