I've always had arm pump problems and this has been what works best for me: About 30-40 minutes before I ride I get the blood flowing in my forearms by pumping my wrists by opening and closing my hands hard until my forearms start to get sore. Then I relax till my forearms start to recover then repeat the whole thing one more time. This process really helps for me. Another thin that really helps is to lean forward when you accelerate to take the pull off your arms (also a great energy saver).
