Are you a woman? I put ice in my sports bra on 100 degree days. Seriously. I did a 50 mile bike ride to the beach a couple years ago in 105 degree weather. Ice is your friend.

Just Uber for the week, for crying out loud. Why would you do that to yourself?

Wet cloth around your neck maybe. Otherwise, not that big of a deal. Biking in the morning at 80 and humid is going to work up a sweat though, so hopefully you have a shower facility at the office.

OP here. Except it takes a lot more time with red lights and intersections. During which I gently poach in my own juices. Also there's a hill.


So its 15 mins? That about my walk to the Metro. You will be ok

Change clothes, drink water, and give in to the sweat. Shower when you get home.

On the way back, that hill will work to your advantage so it should even out.

Attach a battery operated fan to your helmet.
