Winter is almost here and I'm having a hard time finding the right time to ride. Went for a nice little ride up though coal creek canyon. I know that place like the back of my hand. It's the perfect ride with the cuts and straight-aways. However, you've always gotta keep your eyes open for gravel. That stuff will have you edging so close to the guard rail that it's irritating. Nearly scraped my leg on it when my rear end slipped, as I was coming out of a turn.

In any event, I had a good ride up there but sadly I got caught in some wicked weather on the way back. Hail was smashing my fingers even at the crawling pace I was rolling. Now that I'm back and starting to regain feeling in my fingers I thought I'd post this to help me fingers get back into it.

Makes you wonder what protection the gloves will give when they impact the road, gravel, etc. I wonder if that new fabric by Dow Corning would deflect hail?
