Blue Fingers

I HAVE searched the web for THE GROUP and seen reference to silk inner gloves that
may help to alleviate the farking cold finger syndrome that I
experience on the way to work. I don't think that there's such a thing

There have been several suggestions, and I haven't bothered to read all the
responses, so I may be duplicating something; firstly, I use Damart
(mailorder ?)
gloves as inners. They specialize in that sort of product. The gloves are
not bulky, and have fine aluminium threads woven into the fabric. I like
them better than some woolen ones that I also have. Think they cost < $20
(?)
As an alternative, in the most recent Ulysses Riding On Mag., p68, the is a
reference to "Widder Electric Gloves"
Suggests thet they are more effective than heated grips.

Sounds like you have or are about to have a fit of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Last paragraph: "We can't praise the gloves enough nor the service. Pay
particular attention to the sizing. We ordered one size smaller as suggested
but probably could have ordered a size lower again. BMW style plugs are
available.

as winter gloves that actually work, and I don't want to install heated
grips, so the inners seem like a good idea.

I HAVE LOOKED AT ALL THE ONLINE BIKE ACCESSORIES sites that I know of,
but can't seem to find them.

that is because online stores in aust are hopeless , they dont list every
single thing that they sell
try the phone next time

Short of hitting Elizabeth Street, does anyone know where I can get a
pair?

(snow) Ski shops - I used them for a while under my cycling gloves.
Now I wear cheap knit gloves over the top, probably wouldn't work for
you as moto gloves are bulkier.

I looked on the Aus ebay and none there I can see.Loads on the UK one
over here,

The standard thinsulate ones don't work well for me as I suffer from
job related,"VWF"(Vibration White Finger" soo in addition to good
riding gloves and inners I did this,

however I'm sending for some of these ones hoping they are better than
the standard Thinsulate ones,

HTH :)

kathmandu sells thermals including thermal gloves

A motorcycle/bike accessories shop not on Elizabeth Street.

Why don't you want to install heated grips?

He'll end up installing them eventually, he just likes to start by
ruling out the obvious solution ...

Thanks for that. I *was* intending to keep my lunch down.

So...you don't want to hear a funny night shift story?

MMmmm go ahead.. but don't say poo

Great big handfulls of it in fact...

I have been on a camel safari across parts of the world known as
desert.. guess what Arabs use instead of paper :(

I'm wondering why you chose to watch... but I really do NOT
want to know!

How do you think one performs ablutions in the middle of 50Deg c heat
with nothing but a billion tonnes of sand for company ? ( where did I
mention watching (is that transference))

Chocolate Mousse?

I raises me left index to you .

That's where the term "sand paper" comes from no doubt.

have you tried a camping store?

There's a pair in my dresser drawer. I got them about 25 years ago. Try that
thermal wear place whose name I can't currently recall.
I just did a search on _thermal wear silk gloves_ got 623 hits on OZ sites.
Starting with Paddy Palin. web-search is your friend.

Ending with Paddy Palin. Not everyone is silly enough nor
rich enough to pay those prices.

Take a look at the synthetic golding gloves as an inner.

Hi Rod,

Try and track down a pair of Icebreaker Glove Liners - they're merino
wool plus lycra (so they always fit snugly AND keep their shape are
repeated use - unlike silk liners which do neither!!) and they're thin
enough to be worn under your normal motorcycle gloves.

Try the camping stores in Little Bourke Street ...

I found some at the first motorbike store I walked into when looking for
them.

Not too sure which city you're in, but if you can't find any where you
are, Robbo's Motorcycles in Canberra *may* be able to deliver some to
you. Give them a call on 1800 626216 and ask for Sam. Tell him Alex
sent you.

When you get yourself a set, the best way to use them is to warm them up
before putting your gloves on. I always warm mine up on top of the fire
place for 5 mins, and my fingers are toasty for the 30 minute trip into
work. This is in Canberra temperatures... -5oC yesterday morning.

Is that the Melbourne Canberra?
Or is there an Elizabeth street in Canberra that has a motorcycling
precinct?

As I said I wasn't too sure which city he was in. Didn't realise there
was an Elizabeth street in Melbourne.

No problem sir Lex
It's a long going in-joke.

I have known others to use kitchen rubber gloves as an inner
also you could try latex gloves
cotton gloves we used to use for haycarting would be good $2.00 shop stuff
