Helly, welcome to the forum !!! I can't help you on how to deal with 100F heat, it was nearly 90 here in NY yesterday and I could not think about going out to rideI think one needs to sort of get used to the heat to be able to ride. I would suggest lots and lots of sunscreen, also try to get your electrolites from drinks or pills that don't contain a lot of sugar. Personally, on a hot day in the summer, I always crave cold watermelon YUM. Dress light, and wear light colored helmet.

Ride as early in the morning as is feasible. Drink lots, replace electrolytes, wear sunscreen, and light colored clothes.
