heat burns on rider

[traildust@webtv.net (Anne Hanson)]

Hi Ridecampers,
Do any of you know how to prevent heat burns or sweat sores on the rider
in hot riding conditions?  Also how do you treat them after you get
them?

Whenever I ride in hot weather (over 75) I get these burns on my legs
between ankles and knees.  Any suggestions?  I wear cotton lycra tights
and cotton socks.  I wear ariat boots but do not lace the tops in hot
weather.
