I drank when I was thirsty, and went through over two and a half litres every ride. That was just the monitored amount of bottles I bought and/or started with, like andr0id, I like some alternative refreshments, and generally down another glass of water with every pint of ale while biking.
Limiting water seems silly. I'm actually looking at how to carry more.
I'm not a fan of heat either, but rode 18 mi today when 90F but as they say in Arizona, it was a dry heat.
Any way, had time to mull over past rides in heat and realized I consume an average about 1 oz water per mile.
