Does anybody have suggestions for sunscreen to wear while bicycling?
I've been using a stock of TopCare SPF30, but it's running out and I
don't particularly like the odor and texture of the stuff.

Something non-greasy, so it won't crud up clothes, and easily washed
off after a ride would be desirable. It only needs to last a couple hours.

Thanks for reading, and any ideas.


I use the house brands from CVS and Walgreens. Currently Walgreens
"Sport 50" which I believe is SPF50. I don't see much difference versus
the CVS SPF30 sun blocker I used before but I am not very sensitive to
sun burns. I ride all year and the skin begins to tan more towards the
summer which seems to make it less sensitive. Some tan remains through
the winter because we have a lot of sunny days then as well.

My rides are 3-5h. So far I haven't noticed any rub-off onto clothing
but I only apply it to exposed skin. So it would only have a chance to
rub into my cargo shorts from above the knee when pedaling. It just
hasn't happened noticeably.
