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.

Here in Phoenix/the Valley very few people would bike when it's 110°+ in the summer. But it doesn't matter because we have snowbirds and there's less traffic in the summer so it's okay to take a lane away from cars on every road for bike infrastructure.
