Breakouts after Bike Rides? Read On.

My fellow bikers! Have you experienced fresh breakouts on your cheeks and maybe forehead after long rides?

Your helmet could be the culprit. More specifically the pads inside your helmet!

When was the last time you took the pads out and gave them a good wash by hand? Did you know it's even a thing to do? I was honestly today years old when I learned that.

Now it made sense when I didn't have my bandana on, I would break out. Yeah, my one helmet's pads needed a major wash after all these years.
​
So regularly wash the pads inside your helmet and wear a bandana to extend the time between washes.
