Hey V,

I'm actually allergic to sunscreen so i bought the ground effects long sleeve jersey w/ spf for a 2 day ride in Sept up to Sac. 104* and I was doing ok (cept we ran outta water for the last 20 miles )

But I did ok. I liked it better than the Boure spf jersey. The ground effects one looks thicker (kinda wooley) but it kept me cooler. Odd.

You shoulda seen the looks I was getting wearing a long sleeve, wooly jersey in 104* weather I actually think I was cooler than the folks in short sleeves.

Other than that, I wear the REI SPF shirts but I know you don't like the whole flapping thing. I get REALLY weird looks when I ride in that shirt down Foothill. Man.. what a Fredwina..
