Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    I’m one of those unsociable cyclists that rides early in the day. Most people I know don’t like waking up early. For me, it’s the best time to ride. I don’t like the heat of the day.
    Long sleeve shirt, gloves, +50 sunscreen on the exposed parts of my legs, proper UV polarised sunnies, helmet. I have long hair which protects the back of my neck.

    It’s just over 2 hours of riding for that trip (for me), so I’m not in the real heart of the day.

      Cool, I’ve been experimenting with different sunscreens to find one that works and isn’t annoying. I’m currently using one with zinc in it, which seems to work well, but it makes me look even paler than I already am.

        It’s like a helmet. Seems silly until you fall, then it’s a bargain.

        Which one are you using?
        I’ve been using the Nivea sun spf50, but I’m looking for something more durable to sweat.
        I don’t care what I look like.

          I’m using Invisible Zinc on my body, and a Neutrogena one on my face. Not too happy with the face one though.
