If you're afraid of showing visible signs of sweat on a 100F day, something else is wrong.
I bike commute in Texas year round about 8 miles one way. 4-5 days a week. 104F or 22F.
For a typical day, it takes about 15 minutes of air conditioning for me to stop sweating, and I don't even change my shirt. On a more formal day, I'll arrive an hour early and bring my button down and pants in a bag, and the key is to completely stop sweating before you change. If you shower in the morning at home, a bit of sweat isn't going to make you stink. Office shower is a plus if you do cold showers though
I'm not a jock but being a bike commuter gets you more positive office cred than the anti-sweat pearl clutching gets you negative office cred.
- amrocha 4y agoLook mate, a lot of people just don't enjoy sweating. I'm glad you can make it work but it's an unpleasant experience for most people

Its about doing your job, and theres plenty where having bad BO is going to affect your ability, especially in more formal environments. And this is before you consider all the extra steps now required such as show up an hour early.
