Third week in a row now got bit by mosquitos while riding at Ringwood. I didn’t even have a mechanical or took a long rest other than a couple of quick breaks.
Usually spray exposed skin, shoes for ticks and front of helmet for gnats but it’s been brutal past few weeks. They are biting me thru my jersey which I sprayed this week. Buzzing by my ears on climbs. Only relief is on downhills.
Gnats are back too which usually disappear by late May chilling in front of my face on climbs.
Anyone else noticed them? Any tips ? I use Ranger Ready Picaridin spray but might have to go full DEET which make me nauseous.
