I think the heat is a vaild excuse unless you are walking/biking to a place with showers.

Electrifying my bicycle made a 30 min bike ride a lot less sweaty but in 90°F weather, I'm going to be stinky no matter what I do outside.

i mean you can just wipe yourself down with a wet towel or some wet wipes, yeah it's not supremely convenient but it really shouldn't be any sort of a dealbreaker.

i support alternate means of transportation and would love if our cities were designed for walking but i’m not biking to work for 30+ min in 101 degree 70%+ humidity weather
