Meh, I ride in the weather you're all experiencing for 4-5 months out of the year. Between May and October, most days are over 90 with a humidity that rarely drops below 85%.
I commute to work daily in 80-95 degree temps (depending on the time of day)
A couple weeks back though, I rode in a 12 hour race here in town. 9am to 9pm. Average temp was around 95 with a 90% humidity. I managed 108.5 miles fixed gear. My back is still peeling from the sunburn lol.

That's me at the finish with 3 minutes still left on the clock. Hard to tell in the photo but my baked skin has a nice film of sunscreen, sweat and gnats lol
