There have been hot days where friends met me at a bar and asked me ”Weren’t you hot on a bike?” It was only then I realized the day was considered hot, because I had wind cooling, and they had a metal greenhouse with solar gain.
That only works if by “hot” days you mean “comfortably warm”. For actually hot weather, it’s gonna have to be evaporative cooling (sweat) and even then it gets pretty uncomfortable unless you’re going at a leisurely pace IMO.
And if its hot and humid you’re screwed. I love being physically active but i literally need to bring a second shirt if its warmer than 25C and even just a little humid. Especially if i have a backpack which i almost always do. I can wring the sweat out of the back of my shirt after 20 minutes on days like that.
