Holy sweat balls.
Dunno about the south, bit Glasgow is at least 25 today with high humidity and pollen count worst of the year. Trying to ride a bike around is torture, reduced to open face mode on my givi touring helmet, Jacket, mtb gloves, approach shoes and only jacket I have (almost winter jacket).
On that plus side. Every street is dry and grippy as! Though peds are at an all time high threat, pokemon go probably to blame for that lol.
Been using a yamaha ybr 125 injection the past few weeks now. Three tank fulls through it and cannot get less than 105mpg out of it, so slow, but comfy and obscenely frugal. 13 litre tank gives a 250/300 mile range, maybe more if you are prepared to find out exactly how far 13l can take you
