If you ride in during the summer (who doesn’t???), there may be times when you’re putting bug repellent spray on.

DEET-based products harm synthetic fabric, so opt for a DEET-free bug spray if you don’t want any surprises.

I’ve used picaridin-based products, and they seem to work as good, if not better, than DEET.

    I hate DEET. It stinks

    Yup. That’s one of the reasons why I started looking for alternatives, but after seeing some damaged caused by it on a few items I had, I was done with it.
