Did a nice little 42 mile amble today but got well and truly toasted!! The back of my hands/arms are burnt and my fingers are white, I look like a penguin where my sunglasses were, and I`ve got the usual lines where my shorts and sleeves were!! It`s all pretty sore too now though off for a cool (ish) shower to try and cool things down a bit

Anybody else go out today and get fried??

Did that last week and ended up with the tops of my legs bright red and the arms burnt but still have white legs!!!

I did The cool wind kind of fooled me & I was only planning on going out for a 10 mile spin. Ended up doing 60 miles & out in it a good few hours, head & arms very red & sore, legs a little less sore. Been out for a ride today, but kept arms & head covered, wasn't taking any chances.

I didn't yesterday summer up here was 2 weeks ago I did that then

I usually get a gradual exposure to the sun over the year and don't burn; didn't this year though, I'd been too busy studying and cycling in the evening and the weather's not been great.

Do as i do now .

Last year a mate of mine had a check up .He was told he had the skin of a 70 year old .

So now loads of sun cream before riding and after the home shower .A cream called doublebase from Boots .

Keep that skin covered .!!!
