Dial It Back ⏱️
Some days we need to dial it back a bit. It might be fatigue; or maybe we can’t do a long ride because we have to go somewhere. At any rate, I decided to dial it back today.
Then tomorrow, I’ll shoot for 20-22 miles again. It look like I’ll have clear weather for it; and the worst of the heat isn’t here yet.
Warmer weather means more exposed skin, though; which in turn means more sunblock!
What's the Skinny? 👂🏻
So, what’s the skinny about sunblock? How much do I really need to use?
I personally look for the fragrance-free types, because fragrances bother me. If only there were sunblocks that lasted several hours! All the ones that I find need to be reapplied every 80 minutes. So tell me, how do Tour de France riders reapply sunblock?
I try to wash off sunblock as soon as I finish a ride; I’ve got an idea that it’s not the best thing for the skin to leave sunblock on all day. And I do it outdoors, too. Sunblock probably isn’t the best thing for plumbing!
Don’t forget, Summer vacation is very close. Kids need UV protection, too!

ABOUT ME
I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.
I live in New Orleans; and retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
