I am doing a trans-am tour in a few weeks and have done a few multi-day tours to test everything out. One thing I notice is that if I'm going to be outside all day for 2-3 months, I'm going to roast like a little piggy. I'm heading out west as we approach the height of the summer and I'm sure there will be a ton of bright scorching-sun days. I don't want painful sun burns... or possibly skin cancer. It's not fun and I personally don't like my face being ridiculously sun-tanned.

Can anyone suggest a head-garment that can be worn with a helmet that will protect me from getting excessively burnt.

My buddy has a skin issue and wears what he calls a "sun drape" - which is nothing more than what it sounds like, but it works. I can't seem to find one of these myself and he has completely forgotten where he got it.

Oh, and I'm not a giant sun lotion fan because I sweat a fair amount and end up eating all of the run-off (yuk). That... and, I don't want to keep re-applying that smelly cream every few hours for months...
