Gloves??

Post by jkevinlilly »

This may be like asking opinions on oils. :?

What are some good gloves for riding in hot weather? I've got decent gloves for cooler weather/rain, but they tend to get a bit hot when the temps go up. But bare hands dissappear quick sliding on asphalt. :shock:

I wear race gloves with carbon fiber knuckle protectors and double palms. the leather is thin, so you still get great feeling for the controls and they are not hot, but they offer the best protection and my hands are kinda useful, so I like to protect them.

I figure I ride harder on those dry sunny roads, so if something happens I need good gloves.
