the humidity is killer. i never really get used to it. however, i can get through a ride okay as long as i'm properly hydrated and have cool clothes on. you're probably sweating nearly constantly so just keep drinking fluids and periodically stop to eat something. the high heat\humidy is rough on the body so try to get out in the mornings or early evenings if you can.
