    The only pic I've got of my tan lines. Note the brown mysterons on my head.

    One more reason to shave the legs - better tanning!
    Just how hairy are your legs, that the hair impedes sunlight reaching the skin????

    Glad to know I'm not the only one! My arms are really tanned down to my wrists, and 3/4s of the way up my biceps, and from my ankles to half way up my thighs... I've been told I look like a right tw@, but I don't care, the tan lines are where it's AT!

    :lol: 8)

    Sicknote,

    I'm as dark as you, trust me, after a weekend like we've just had, you'd have tan lines just
    like mine. Dark skin will get darker and needs to be protected from uvb rays (we all knew
    that anyway). :wink:

    I'm not really bothered by my tan lines. They just show me that I'm dedicated and that I am out in the sun training a lot. I also have a watch tan line from running, which I wear with pride. Sort of like battle scars I guess.

    Had some pretty bad tan lines when I got in after Saturdays ride, soon cured that though, spent rest of day in sun wearing just a pair of shorts!!! :lol:

    My friend has my favourite tan lines.
    He went for a long ride over the weekend, but wore arm warmers which he then rolled down.

    So his tan goes from half way down his bicep to half way down his forearm, then a white gap where his arm warmers were, then a tan line between his arm warmer and gloves, then brown fingers.

    and I would agree that tan lines are very much a badge of honour.
    I particularly enjoy wearing a watch so you get the great white strip where the watch was.

    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost;
    Than never to have loved at all."

    Hows this?

    For ages now, the weather forecast has promised sun. I've just gotten so used to being let down that Saturdays weather came as a complete surprise.

    Came back on Sunday with nicely reddening arms apart from a diagonal bit on my left arm, which after staring at for a while I realised was caused by the shadow from my right one :shock:

    I hadn't realised I was that immobile

    Thinking about going out in just arm and leg warmers for the next few days just to balance up the tan! :oops: :roll: :wink:
