Out of hibernation

fastisfun · 03-07-2010, 02:47 PM

Just pulled the bike out this weekend. Yah I'm lazy, could have had it on the road much sooner with the weather being good but never got around to it. I need to pick up some warmer gloves since it's pretty dang cold in the morning on the way to work. Anyone have any recomendations on model/brand and where to get them.

Over in Spokane we have a Cycle Gear I buy stuff from often. Although my last pair of gloves I bought at Westside. Finally broke down and got some Tourmaster Synergy heated gloves. Pretty nice since I've never had any warm weather gloves before. They limit my movement a bit since they are bulkier than my regular gloves but actually being able to feel my digits is nice. So I guess my advice would be to make sure you don't get anything too bulky where you can't function normally.

Install some heated grips and wear lighter gloves all year round...!

I always had an issue with heated grips being too fat. How are yours?

How much do heated grips usually cost?

Count me in for being late to the party. Also just getting my bike out.
