Have much luck with your gloves/mittens when riding in the rain? Got
truly waterproof gloves? How do you dry your gloves when they get
soaked inside?


I also have Outdoor Research gloves (Couloir) and they are completely
waterproof, and by waterproof I mean waterproof. You can literally put
your hand in a bucket of water with them and the inside of the glove
won't get wet.

If it's raining, and you have the gauntlet of the glove over the sleeve
of your jacket, then rain will flow down your sleeve into the interior
of the glove. At that point the Gore-Tex membrane works against you buy
keeping it from drying out. If it's raining you want to put the glove
on and then pull the sleeve of the jacket down over the gauntlet of the
glove and cinch the jacket sleeve down tight unto the glove.
