wow. Looks like you have not much faith in sun screens. Well, they wear such stuff on the Sahara.. So, you think sun screens ineffective.?
.. Can I ask a question please. That I was about to post. You are the best source, anyway..
I notice soon after the return of Summer weather and intense sunlight, it just takes a couple weeks before My skin takes on an itchy sensation. Before the end of the summer season, I might even notice itchy boil like spots on my arms and legs that last until the Fall when the sun goes away..
Soon after the sun is less intense, they go away and the itchy skin problem goes away.. I ride as much in the winter as the summer. Well , almost..
I regularly use the strongest sun screens I can find and try to hydrate my skin with hydrating creams each day.
. ....Are some of us more prone to sun poisoning or some such malady. Usually by October , these skin problems go away until the following June.. Your opinion, please.
