All of the NO-AD stuff i use protects against both the UVA & UVB rays. My helmet has a visor that I use & it does help.
The small bottle of sunscreen is a good idea, I'll be-a loading it in my rack trunk from now on.
I also use a visor and am toying with the idea of sewing some sort of "curtain" for my ears and the back of my neck to shade them from the sun. Think "foreign legion" flap; maybe I'll have it go around my neck too. I figure it would be easy to tie onto the the vents in my helmet with some lightweight string and if I designed it right, it wouldn't be too flappy.
