Do any of you stop riding at a certain summer temp? By July here in NOLA it will never drop below 80°F even at night until mid September. Our humidity is 100% at sunrise and drops to maybe 70% mid day if we don't get a T-storm. Then the humidity shoots back up to 100%. Like putting water on the furnace. Steamy!

How hot do you ride, or when do you give it up?

Here is our forecast for this week:

I ride through the worst all summer.
Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate, I keep riding regardless of the temp. I carry a 3l Camelbak every where I ride except for the shortest of rides i.e. less then a mile or so.
