Wow. Just wow. I have NO advice to give because riding in temps over 70F is a hot day for me and when it gets over 80F I wait to ride later in the day. I've never ridden when it is over 85F and can't imagine riding when it's over 90F, but I can't remember seeing that temp in the last 20 years although it's possible it got that hot on some record breaking day here in AK. Having said all that...I'm confident that in addition to many other good comments, hydrating before you start riding is always an important factor. Riding at 95F...wow.
