I start my class this Thursday night, but he riding portion starts Saturday morning, so I won't really know till then.
I've had it on and ran around like an idiot for a bit. It didn't get that hot. Heat has never reall bothered me that much though. I used to work in irrigation/groundskeeping when I was in HS/College. I'd go all day in the florida sun and i'd be fine. Thought I wasn't wearing a leather cocoon. Also I could zip out the liner for less padding.

Indeed. The liner is not there to provide "padding" but to provide warmth and a wind/rain barrier when needed.
When those things are NOT needed and cooling IS, then the liner should be removed.
