Skincare probably priority using any preferred emollient, at least twice a day. Also treat any injuries to skin as quickly as possible to clean and add topical antiseptic/antibacterial cream or liquid. Enjoy your cycling but maybe carry antibacterial wipes with you to prevent infection getting a headstart!
