@wmd yes. What temps are you expecting?
@quixoticgeek nothing below 10⁰c
@wmd upper temps ?
@quixoticgeek 30⁰c max I think.
@wmd so for 20+ I tend to wear fingerless cycling mitts. For 15-20 I have some full finger MTB gloves from decathlon. For 10-15 I have some yellow gloves the make of which has long worn off. 0-10 I have altura night vision gloves. Below 0 I have buffalo mitts.
I then Carry a pair of Rab Force merino liner gloves which I can wear with any of the above to boost their warmth a bit if needed.
I have a lot of different gloves...
@quixoticgeek
What would you say is their main function, I guess besides keeping your fingers warm?
@wmd sacrificial layer to hit the tarmac first when you come off. Protects the skin
@quixoticgeek@social.v.st @wmd@chaos.social This sounds like an entirely reasonable number of gloves. Although I've got old and thin and Raynaudsy, and probably need to investigate something with active heating for <5C. Maybe next winter...
@quixoticgeek @kim ah yes, another thing I need to look into, current handlebar things are not nice.
@quixoticgeek @th @kim always worried they'll get sticky under uv light. Happened to my last rubbery ones.
@quixoticgeek@social.v.st @th@social.v.st @wmd@chaos.social Yeah, fairly sure it's GP2s I've got on my Brompton
@quixoticgeek@social.v.st @th@social.v.st @wmd@chaos.social Nahh, I have S-bars (the flat ones), which admittedly give a bit more flexibility for the mounting of Stuff.
@quixoticgeek Got any glove tips then? :)
