At age 65 I can't say I've never used sunscreen because I might have 10 or 12 times. I got sunburned about 15 years ago while riding in March on a bike trail but that was because of a bp med I was taking. Since then I've been fine, but I live in Wisconsin so unless you a susceptible to getting burned it's not likely without a lot of exposure. I may get skin cancer some day, I may die of it, but I'm pretty sure I will die of something someday.
