Re: [RBW] Warm weather bike clothing, long sleeved
+1 here. In addition to the quick dry, nice options to roll up the sleeves and fix in place as the weather changes. Consider also the "convertible pants" in similar materials (the ones with the zip-off legs). Mornings, legs off, afternoon, legs on. My personal choices are Columbia for shirts and REI Sahara for pants. YMMV Cheers!

[RBW] Warm weather bike clothing, long sleeved
This summer I have been wearing REI brand SPF 50 long sleeve shirt (this thing is heavily ventilated. After a while even in 90 deg I forget that I'm wearing long sleeves) and Rivendell's 2017 MUSA pants. I climbed Mt Hamilton with those on my road bike couple of weeks ago. I got some weird looks from folks who were riding carbon bikes (99% of them were) Last weekend I rode up Mt Diablo with same outfits, except I was riding Appaloosa this time. Other bikers were not uncomfortable this time, probably because they thought I was going bike camping (some even asked). When I came down I rode straight to a fancy restaurant to have my dinner and a drink. It didn't feel out of place at all. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Warm weather bike clothing, long sleeved
I know this may be an unpopular opinion here, but I like the long sleeved shirts offered by major outdoor brands. Yeah, they are synthetic, but they do the job, and are lightweight. Great for bringing on a bike tour, since they dry fast and can be crammed in your clothing bag without worry of wrinkling. (Plus, they don't take up much space.) I often look for ones billed as "fishing shirts". -Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Warm weather bike clothing, long sleeved
+ 1 for Hawaiian shirts, if the colors and patterns are not too wild. I don't bother with long sleeves, but rayon is an excellent hot weather material, and many Hawaiian shirts are rayon.

Linen. Long sleeve buttondown. Open weave, enough sun protection, and supremely comfortable in the heat. Natural or white is coolest, but a French blue looks pretty snappy too and won't show dirt as much. All the flappy airflow of a burnouse as long as you do not need pockets and do not tuck it in. https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/product/men-premium-linen-long-sleeve-shirt-183593COL00SMA002000.html?gclid=Cj0KEQjwv_fKBRCG8a3ao-OQuZ8BEiQAvpHp6CCoUla2DCWR2yD2TRErxoAE5ngKUMp_Fah1ZFkB9UEaArF88P8HAQ Is a very inexpensive source. Not musa. Other ideas: snap button cowboy shirts, guayabera shirts, and the other options already presented. If you can live with long-ish sleeves, a Reyn Spooner Hawaiian shirt is an excellent choice as well.
