I finally broke down and bought some winter gloves at CycleGear. My first pair of winter gloves ever. Yes, I think I'm becoming a wuss. However, I look forward to testing out my new gloves. I can't even fathom what it's like to have toasty, hell even almost warm, hands while riding in <50 degrees.
Usually, anything under 60 degrees and my fingers are popsicles. I've been itching to try them out since I bought them at the beginning of the week. Wouldn't you know it, we've had the nicest weather since purchase of said gloves. Today it was mid-50s and I couldn't wait any longer. So I hit the road in my Sedici waterproof women's gloves. Oh my! My hands have never been that toasty. With the advent of winter gloves, I totally don't understand why more people don't ride in the winter.
I love having a nice pair of gloves. Never used them to ride motorcycles. Only riding I ever did was in the summertime, but it is wonderful to have driving gloves in the winter:)
ReplyDeleteI just picked up a pair of gloves myself and like you I've been dealing with abnormally warm weather for this time of year. It was 64 Degrees today in Jersey and its February.
ReplyDeleteI know! Not that I'm bummed out; I'd rather have warmer weather, but still...
