Just had the postie with a pair of these that seem to get good reviews. I suffer with cold hands as soon as it gets near freezing so thought I would treat myself in case we get some nice dry, but cold days in the winter when I can still get out.
They are maybe a bit unwieldy but will be fine for the trigger shifters on the hybrid.

They look nice, too heavy for me though, my hands would sweat in those unless it was well below zero.

Be as well to wander round to the supermarket for some shopping I think. It'll stretch the legs.

Look very nice. When you've tried them let me know as I've a friend with Raynaud's in her fingers. She's always on the look out for better gloves.
Myself I find magic gloves from the market at £1 worn under my standard cycling gloves works very well. I only need something more substantial when it gets very cold, I really don't like the sweaty hands thick gloves give me.
I used to use an old 35mm film canister as a £1 coin container, can't remember the exact number of coins but it was a lot more than you'd think.

Maybe shopping when you're bored isn't such a good idea..........I have just munched my way through a family size bag of Walkers Sweet Chilli crisps!

I have bimbled. 13.5 miles for me. Very pleasant here, even a bit warm to say the least.
It rained for all of 20 seconds then stopped before I went out.

I had a little bimble too.....about the same length. No blue skies here though. Just lots of puddles but I had mudguards.
I can park my arse on the couch and watch the cycling after lunch.
