It helps a LOT if you can stay in the shade out of the direct sunlight.
Here is a trick I use. I go over to where all the rich people in my neighborhood live, LOL, and the streets there are heavily shaded with little traffic. I will dip into the streets for a little "recovery time" getting ready for the last push home. I do get funny looks from all the McMansion owners who are wondering why I keep riding up and down their street.
