Default RE: gloves

I was riding with a friend that went down in the gravel and the palms of both hands were messed up pretty bad by the gravel. I always wear gloves...fingered when it's cold...fingerless when it's warm.

Always wear full gloves in summer, warm gauntlet in winter. Never understood fingerless gloves. I have never beenriding in mid August during a heat wave, stopped at a long light and said to myself," Holy Sh-t my fingers are so fugging hot"! Sure wish I had fingerless gloves. But, like everything else, to each his own.
