I just saw an advert for some Endura lycra shorts which included the information that they were good at blocking the sun, equivalent to at least SPF-30. I have managed to singe myself on a few rides, but never through my shorts! Is that a real risk in the UK?
I remember Team Sky experimenting with semi-transparent kit and Chris Froome getting burned through it, but through normal lycra ...?
I did notice a slight reddening of my arms yesterday after a long ride wearing a lightweight long-sleeved jersey, but that has a fairly loose weave so I can imagine a certain amount of sunlight getting through that.
