The last ten years or so I have been covering up during the summer with the winter riding clothing but with less layers. Typically, a long-sleeved top (BB obvs), gloves, long shorts, tall ankle socks all to keep the sun off. I also go to the Mole Clinic every year except last year there wasn’t one.
Last year I spent a long time out on the bike just bimbling as I explored the surrounding countryside during lockdown and for the first time for a long time really enjoying being out riding so did more. Lots of sun always a cooling breeze what could go wrong?
Today I had an SCC removed from my ear plus another suspicious bit removed from my forehead for biopsy. Very impressed with NHS though. Ten-minute examination from soles of my feet to top of my head for sun affected areas by a lady doctor , five minute wait then they were hacking bits off me.
My ear is a ‘cut and shut’ job with a wedge taken out then the two bits stitched together. Forehead - they just dug a hole.
Just ordered SunSense PF50 sun screen and lip salve and looking for a bike helmet with ear flaps. Perhaps I could wear my motorcycle crash hat?
Any way just a reminder to cover up in the sun. You may not notice the effect it is having but it is.
Stay safe.

That’s the problem with all that lovely Devon sunshine. Hope you heal quickly

Ooh ‘eck! I hope you’ve got enough ear left to hang your face mask on

Seriously though, heal soon...

Can you buy a PPE version of a deerstalker?
