try using a sunblock, with a high spf. A sunburn is caused by all the blood rushing to a certain area of your body to try and cool it due to the UVB rays rapidly heating the surface of your skin. So use a sunscreen with a high spf, and that will help. Just put it on before you ride your bike!!!

If you are among those likely to burn, use a sun block with a PF of 15 or greater. An ounce of sun block will effectively cover your entire body.
Apply sun block at least 15 to 30 minutes before venturing out into the sun and re-apply at least every two hours especially if you have been
