The sun's out. You're grubby and plottin. Every bit of air helps. First step – mitts. They free your fingers. And keep tight around your palms to take the shock of roots and rocks. Double-fabric back hand to let in a cool breeze. Not midges. Palmistry™ gel padding for a secure-as grip on the bars. And secure around your wrist, with Velcro® tabs. Plus a soft, absorbent thumb panel to deal with sweat. Or snot.
