How many pairs of riding gloves do you have?
When you ride how many pairs of gloves do you take with you?
I haven't seen any post on gloves,they are an important part of riding gear...

One pair we don’t have cold weather so to speak. Midwinter midday temp around 13 (55) anything below 10 (50) we don’t ride, much too cold Brrrrrr :razz:
3 pair. One for summer, one pair of gauntlets for riding home from work because sometimes my hands get dirty just before I mount up to ride home and another pair of gauntlets for long rides. The wife has two pair and the kids share one pair. Gloves are one of the cheapest accessories you can buy so why not have more than one pair.

Just one pair of medium weight Olympics...In cold weather I have a pair of knit liners I wear under them. A little cold in cold weather, a little hot in hot weather, but mostly just about right....
Three pair. One airated for summer use, one lined slightly with that 3M Thinsulate stuff and a warm pair for winter lined with sheep wool. All are leather and none cost more than $25 US.

I have three pair of gloves: summer, fall/spring, and winter. Depending on the time of year it is I usually take two pair of gloves with me winter/spring(fall) or summer/spring(fall)
I have a bunch of mechanic gloves that I use in warm weather. I had up until recently a pair of snowmobile glove liners made of the same stuff they make wet suits out of. These where the best cold weather gloves I've ever owned. I finally wore-out the finger tips last month and I replaced them with Carhartts. Big mistake. The Carhartts have a very thick leather palm which makes grabbing the grips uncomfortable.
