The Sun and Cycling.

We rode up to San Clemente last week...Had breakfast at a favorite outdoor restaurant..The point...The wait staff, she obviouly had spent every minute of her youth in the sun...San Clemente is a beach town..What from Anette Funichello, we call them beach babes..I know sexist.
But her skin was awful....First glance , I thought freckles that had gone totally mad...No ...Skin damage...As many pock marks as the moon.
I love being out in the sun...Feels great..Fresh air and sunshine and riding.
But, in15 years will our skin look like that..? Yet alone Melona problem.
I religiously wear a sunblock 30... Have a pretty good cyclists tan of which I proudly display to the world.. Does sunblock prevent skin solar radiation damage.
See there are advantages of living in Seattle.
