[RC] heat rash/blisters - winsumjo

I don't get the blisters, but about 2 years ago I started to get a heat rash
around my ankles after a ride.  It gets very red, raised and itches like
crazy.  Like you I have competed for many years without a problem, hate to
say it but maybe in my case it is age related.LOL
I have used the gold bond medicated powder on my legs before I put the socks
on.  After the ride depending on the length and heat, I may or may not have
any rash, but it is definately less.  Then I just powder my legs for a day
or two after, it helps with the itching.  Looks funny though with white
powdery legs in shorts!!   Louise, Fl.
