Daytime--afternoon--is the hottest time.
But since you're from the UK, you can go all Coward on us, if you find a mad dog that is.

This is my first burn...and I think it's safe to assume that for one week I'm are going to turn my daily schedule on its ear. From diurnal to nocturnal. I think.

I like to venture out from under my shade to look at it during the day. It's fun. I go many times. You could do it earlier, but it just gets hot so fast that, unless you go out at first light, you're just gonna' get hot. You probably have a few hours. Use sunscreen and/or be covered and have enough water and a good hat. Use your fat tired bike. Things really look different during the day.

I actually thought it was more comfortable on my bike with the breeze than in camp under my crappy shade structure, lol. Just make sure you have a nice wide brimmed hat, sun glasses, and water with you.
