I get sunburn on my arms and my pastor who is also a cyclist had mentioned these thin white arm covers to wear so that i won't get burn ed and keep constantly putting sunscreen on my arms all the time. I also don't really want to wear long sleeve shirts underneath the bicycling jersey in the 90 degree heat while i am doing the bike ride across georgia in June.

You should look on performancebike.com or nashbar.com for a product called arm warmers. They often come in different colors. They are generally for cooler weather so it may be uncomfortable in the heat.

I ride year round in Queensland Australia we have the dubious honor of having the highest rates of skin cancer in the world.

I wear a long sleeve jersey most of the time. In summer we regularly reach 42 celsius (107 f). The jerseys are the best material to balance sun protection and heat. (Any good cycling supplier) Plus heaps of 30+ sunscreen.

I also use an adapt-a cap, fitted snuggly, under the helmet on the longer rides to protect the back of the neck ears and side of the face. (I don't use it as the link shows. It reduces vision to much)

Arm warmers come in a variety of colors. Have not seen to many in white.
Easy solution, cut the sleeves off a white long sleeve T-shirt, then sew some elastic in the top of the sleeve.
You now have a pair of white arm warmers.
