Must be good/effective in theory - Small to carry, kills germs, easy to use etc.

Just wondered if anyone rates it?

Give us a clue.What is it that you are doing during your commute that requires you to sanitize your hands?

I'm guessing he takes a shortcut through the park, in the evening.

In a dispenser attached to the bars, could be a dangerous distraction?

Aren't there some studies suggesting this stuff is pretty bad for you if used regularly? If they were true I wouldn't want to cover myself in it...

Don't have any showers where I work, stand-up wash at the basin with Boots cheap shower gel works fine.

Plus one for baby wipes. Pretty much used them for 3 months tour across Africa.

Also not sure I'd want to use hand wash anywhere except my hands.

Pit and bollock wash at the sink is all you need if you don't have showers. Well, maybe a good squirt of Lynx as well.

Lidl or huggies for baby wipes imo.

Yes. If I use a Boris Bike I normally run myself through a jet wash too.

But excellent for cleaning bikes. I dunno what's in them, but they remove grease/oil better than most 'specialist' products.

open sweaty skin pores around the undercarriage? big dollop of hand sanitizer? What could possibly go wrong? Give it a go and report back, but have an alternative plan for day 2.

i used hand sanitiser as body wash at glastonbury festival in conjunction with wet wipes, pits and bits, fresh as a daisy all week, even after traipsing round in the heat and dancing like a loon till the wee hours, never did me any harm.

Muck off are doing a dry body wash shampoo probably ideal for your needs. Tried a sample last week, very effective

How far's your commute?

If you shower daily at home, you shouldn't need to shower/wash at work at all.

I wouldn't put anything antibacterial all over my body. In fact I'm weaning myself off antibacterial soap in the kitchen.
