Leg cooling gel? (Eg like Ice?)

[rotters13]

Due to the ground turning fast into the equivalent of a road, I have decided that I need some Like Ice or equivalent after going xc or similar.

What do you use? What is the best value? Preferably something nice and simple to use as never really used it before!

Thank you!

Well years ago, we used to dunk animalintex in cold water so it was like a cold poultice which worked quite well though it was a bit messy and you have to bandage it in place.

I think anything with Arnica, Aloe and Mint in it should work pretty well. We also used to use Ice Tight - I think that's what it was called in a green and white tub - can't remember the manufacturers name but its a pretty well known brand.

Ice tight's probably the best - really simple to use but can be a bit messy as its like a clay.
Used to be some stuff called ice blue which was a gel - wasn't as good as Ice Tight as it almost used to evaporate off but was good for "instant action" (also smelt lush but that could just be me being weird

)
