Thank you for the find. There are so few cycling shirts I'm just looking at alternatives. Underbody armor has a shirt but I thought it would be too warm. There also are some surfing and boating shirts, but they don't look like they have adequate ventilation. The surfing shirts are dark colors.

Again, thanks.
If I'm going to wear a long sleave shirt during the summer, it MUST be white or nothing else. Thanks for those articles.

I was wearing the long sleave white Performance jersey not too long ago with very good results. The past two weeks since I haven't used them, my arms turned very tan. I guess I'll have to go back to using them again after reading your articles. I still use full hand gloves because I hate that mid finger tan line.
