I was going to dispense with mine but I fell off on Tuesday and they saved me from road rash so now i'm not so sure.

I went for a quick 10 miler - had to go back after 50 yards to get my gloves - felt naked without them ;-)

Just ditched mine on the way home, kept me cooler but did feel naked! Saying that 40 mph descending makes me think about putting them back on!

Keeping with the fingerless,:becool:
 
Fingerless mitts, nice to think there's something on the palms of my hands which might give them an extra second before the angle-grinder effect starts should I ever have a spill. You've just reminded me however that I forgot my sunscreen when I left for work this morning, here's hoping the suns gone down sufficiently later to prevent me getting toasted arms (again!).

Mitts for me too, the only time I go gloveless is after a few days sunshine when I want to even the tan out a little ^_^
Used to get the same playing golf, one white hand and one brown :blush:

I use the fingerless gloves all the time. Apart from the protection after a spill, the padding is very good especially on long rides. White hands and brown arms lets the world know you're a cyclist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thankfully I did a bit of sunbathing this weekend and have just about managed to get my hands the same shade as my forearms. Nothing as bad as two-tone arm/hand shades coupled with rollup smokers fingertips! Fingerless gloves except in very cold weather. Gez
