Stay cool!
But for me, getting to work means getting up at 5am. and on the way home I have time. I rode all the way on the day it was 101 degrees, and I was surprized how well acclimatized I am... I drink a lot of water, and take my time, and if i want, i stop and buy something cold (still cheaper than gasoline...).
