Gloves for wet riding
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? It was pouring last week when we were at Sierra-at-Tahoe. Snowing at the top. Anyway my daughter & I use our Gordini gloves that usually seem reasonably warm. Mine are Goretex/Primaloft, hers Drimax/Hollofil II. Anyway they both got soaked through. Less warm when soaked, and by the afternoon we avoided higher elevations to keep our hands warmer. Another problem is they won't dry. We used to use REI gloves, and we'd invert their liners when we were done. These gloves don't seem to want to do that, and it seemed to mess up the REI gloves after awhile. After several days of hanging up to dry, I turned most of my gloves inside out, and it was able to squeeze quite a bit more water out. Not enough for it to dry though. We tried using a hair dryer on "cool" to dry the gloves, but the hair dryer quit. Help! |
