Tecnu Oak-N-Ivy Skin Cleaner is good to have handy if you go where you're likely to come in contact. Stop and rub some Tecnu on immediately, even if you just think you bumped into the stuff. Then make sure to carefully take off your kit and immediately throw it in the fire...I mean, washing machine, using hot water and lots of detergent. <br /><br />That Tecnu stuff works pretty good. They even include it in goodie bags for mountain bike events around these parts. If you don't have Tecnu, try lemon juice, vinegar, rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer, etc. The bottom line is you need to get that oil (urushiol) off everything as soon as possible. This is important, because it can be potent for years if left on anything. So ideally, avoid contact in the first place, use Tecnu if you suspect contact, and thoroughly clean yourself and your stuff as soon as possible.
