[RBW] Winter gloves
What do you all wear? It's down to 10*F here and getting colder. Have never been happy with my previous.. Had 'hippo hands' on my Pugsley last winter w some insulated gloves (some cheapo insulation) and still wasn't enough. Wool liner was good but too thick to layer.. I am thinking maybe some Mittens https://www.frostriver.com/?s=mittens&post_type=product -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Mittens are great for most anything, but biking and staying warm needs lobster mitts. That means pinkie and ring in one "finger", middle and pointer in another finger, and a lonesome thumb for a third. All the warmth of mittens with the control of gloves, and alien good looks. -Lobster Zealot Brooklyn NY -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

+1 for the Empire Wool and Canvas IceBike Mittens! Love 'em. Then there are various ski gloves. I went nuts with those during Boston's miserable winter last year. Will be testing a few that I got on sale at the end of the season out this season. One trick is to keep the core toasty... that makes for more generous circulation to the periphery. rod -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Winter gloves
I've only ridden down to 25*F this year, but after trying thick gloves, I gave up and now am trying layers. I have a pair of very densely knit woolen cycling gloves, good to 40*F or so; between 40 and 30*F I have a pair of mid weight Sugois; and below that I've tried the Sugois inside of a pair of cheap Polartec gloves, oversized. (Come to think of it, I also have a pair of leather/heavy canvas mitten shells.) I have Medium hands but I always buy Large, both so that I can get the wools in the Sugois and the Sugois into the Polartecs or shells; but mostly because it leaves a bit of air at the end of the fingers, which makes a large difference, IME. I'm confident that these 2 or 3 layers will see me safely down to my ultimate limit of the upper or mid teens. Deacon: I've owned 2 pr of boiled wool and nylon or leather sheath mittens. The last pair was from Outdoor Research, and they were so warm that at least in the positive 20s F, I'd always end up removing the shells after 5-7 miles. OTOH, I had such a pair on that -20F (the high for the day) skiing day long ago, and my hands were the only part of me that was cold, until a friend lent me her down filled mittens. I had trouble with the Outdoor Research shells on the bike -- slippery and hard to reach the controls; this was the reason I sold them.
