Well, I'm old. This means I gave indifferent circulation and Reniers or whatever.
I take blood thinners my skin is softer than Andrew.
This all boils down to I get cold hands, a graze is bloody messy.
For everyday I have an armoured pair of gloves.
For cold days I have a cheap pair of ski gloves.
And if it's wet and I'm organised then a pair of SealSkins.
Cold dry days a pair of thermal gloves, not quite as warm as the ski gloves.
Then there is a pair of fingerless gloves, those the remember sunny days will recall these. Again, protect your palms when you take a tumble.
That's just one part of my cycling kit collection.
