how many have headed out on day / weekend / holiday ride, got to a lunch destination and found it a bit hotter than expected, and no hat to protect yourself from the sun. Well after spending most of July (three operations) trying to get rid of a melanoma from the side of my head, a hat, sunscreen and shirts are going to be the 1st in the bag, not the last or not at all if the room for gear is tight. While we think we are covered in leather or Gortex, it is the time we spend off the bike we are getting burnt. Plus the sun streaming through the visor all day. Take care folks, what was for me a small blemish on the skin the size of a small finger nail has resulted in a cut from cheek to mid forehead!R12ST
