March 23, 20169 yr comment_490173 I would love to have another road bike but my wife doesn't want me on the road with the texting drivers. We have a cyclist or two get killed around here every year...

March 23, 20169 yr Author comment_490177 That's why I quit training & racing myself. One guy on my team was killed, and another was permanently injured. I would need a computer to count the number of near-misses, and a couple I'll never forget. So I converted my turbo to the Minoura ICE system and I can ride miles safely without leaving the house Edited March 23, 20169 yr by TomoHawk Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/53436-do-you-wear-driving-gloves/?&page=6#findComment-490177 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 24, 20169 yr Author comment_490244 If a cyclist or two is killed in your area, then the legislators and LE people aren't doing their jobs well. Plus the drivers are truly st00pid. A cyclist being killed should be as rare as a nascar driver being killed. Obviously, choosing a safe road to ride is important, but everyone must share the roads equally and safely. A careless driver can make a country parkway a dangerous place.

March 24, 20169 yr Author comment_490248 Mittens are for outdoor winter activities. Driving gloves are for driving, cycling gloves are for cycling, and when you are done with your activity, you take them off. If I were to keep wearing my racing suit or cycling uniform, I'd keep wearing the gloves- albeit, I'd be wearing the stuff on the right venue.
