We don't run the AC in the house and I work outside in the heat all day so for me it doesn't feel as bad. My morning rides to work are always before daylight, so that's not so bad. My commute home is always in the middle of the afternoon. When it's hot, being on the bike always feels better than working. I pace myself at work so I don't overheat before I ride, and stay well hydrated drinking plenty of water. I'm not a big believer in electrolyte replacement drinks for staying hydrated. I think a lot of that stuff should be considered junk food for people who eat properly and drink water.

Sure, after I get home and get a cool shower I'll have a cold Coke, or 3, or 4.
