QuoteAdditionally what kind of gloves do you wear in the winter?  My cheap gel gloves are falling apart and I figured I would get something that is applicable in spring, summer, and fall (& winter too I guess) that are a bit better in construction.

I dont think these types of gloves would exist in my climate, but maybe in yours.  The temp change is pretty drastic from season to season.  I'd recommend 2 pairs of gloves if this is the same case for you.  A winter/spring set and a summer/fall set.

My summer ones are just a pair of leather Icon Merc's and right now my winter ones are a pair of Burton snowboard gloves ;)  I'm looking into some new winter ones with some more protection.

Lol same here.. i use Burton Superpipe gloves for winter riding. Works well.

Im looking into buying a helmet too, but Im not sure if its worth going extra 150 bucks and getting a shoei over the HJC.  They said the rear vents will prevent the fogging up.  They are lighter, better fitting, more comfortable.  Is this true?  mainly about the fogging..   :dunno_white:

Better fitting depends on your head. Try them both on - head shapes differ.

Lighter may or may not be true - compare them.

The HJC I bought this summer has rear vents...and the antifog/antiscratch sheild.
