Thanks for the sunscreen advice. Going for 7 days straight in the sun isn't going to be much fun (no rhyme intended here )! Being the fair one here I need all the advice I can get!

Just ordered Spwipes on the internet for inbetween rest stops- they're like Wipes except they have sunscreen in them. Come in packets so easy to stuff in pockets, etc. Used them last year, but I didn't do this much riding either!
