Sunblockwill help, but it won't stop it totally if you ride a lot. Just part of the deal IYAM. I almost always wear sunglasses, so it's not so noticable anyway. Besides, I ain't as pretty as I used to be-raccoon or not.[8D]

Glad to know I am not the only one. I don't ever bother with the sunblock because my skin almost never burns just gets darker and darker. I guess it's like another tattoo, marked for life, people say"You must ride a Bike" Added another 250 miles to the tan yesyerday, sorry to say(To all you notheren folks) that 68 degrees was a bit chilly, had my jacket on but I removed the liner and it was chilly. Enjoy the ridin.....

I get it a lot only because my eyes are so trained to polarized sunglasses, I can't stand being in the sun without them, no matter what I'm doing (riding, driving, fishing, mowing grass, or just hanging out). I tan pretty quick and can usually get things evened out a bit by just putting my face in the sun for a little while on a nice warm sunny day with my eyes shut. Then, it's immediately back to the glasses.

I get some of the worse reverse raccoon eyes and tan lines up here in the summer time. working for the electric company, 90 percent of the time i am required to wear long sleeves so my head and neck get dark as heck, but behind my shades is pale as a ghost. thats why i rarely go to the beach haha my arms are nice and tan up to ablove the elbow. by the time i get around to working around the house with my shirt off, its too late
