anybody got gloves they would recommend? the last two pair i've had have given up early in my book. my hands are healthy, so i'm not really complaining...just wondering if anyone's got an opinion. i had a pair of Olympia's and a pair of JoeRocket's.

Rob - i've heard the Helds are really good. one of my friends from LRRS uses them...his best time is a 1:13.2 i think, and he trusts them so i guess that's good for something.

John - i read some all-leather glove's promo one time that said, 'we don't use carbon/kevlar that just shatters when you fall', and all i could think was, "well at least my knuckles aren't shattering". but i don't really know the truth. you feel like you've gotten away from some bad falls with healthier hands that you should have? how many times have you crashed with them?

how 'bout from now on you let us know when that's NOT one of your criteria.

i think that's what the MotoGP guys get their leathers made of. it's not as thick as cow hide, lighter, and more resistant to tears too i think. plus, we all know how much motorcycle racers hate kangaroos...fuckers. i wanna be a moto gp rider so i have a free ticket to hate kangaroos....fuckers.
