A couple of days after the last few audaxes I've ridden, my forehead has erupted in an unsightly rash of small spots, which coincide with the position of my helmet. I'm thinking that it is cause by a combination of sweat, bacteria and irritation and on the last ride I carried anti-bacterial facewipes, which I used at each stop, in addition to washing my face but here I am three days on with a forehead like a teenage Burger King worker.
Is this something that anyone else has experienced and found a solution to? I’ve tried washing my helmet pads but maybe they need to be sterilised but what could I use?
Any suggestions would be gratefully received as I'm not really enjoying reliving my teenage years.
Thanks
