I recommend highly the Veskimo Personal Cooling System as being very effective in keeping you cool in the most oppressively hot and humid weather.

Perhaps wear thinner gloves in the hot weather and open up the vents of your jacket and your if you have them. I wear first class long sleeved tops under my jacket they wick very well but it is surprising how much one can sweat on a long journey. if you are riding a flip-up helmet with the visor up don't forget the high factor sun cream on your face and especially the nose.
