lol, yeah...

I would second the advice though that liners probably aren't going to do the trick, and if they do then when it gets a little colder they're not going to work. Hands out in front of you for some reason always get the coldest because of the wind - the trick is "windproof" gloves. Gore Bike Wear makes windstopper biking gloves but they're expensive. These Specialized Equinox gloves would work well to I would imagine and be less expensive -

Unfortunately it's difficult for me to recommend something specific because what I use it -
1. An unamed glove with some sort of Polartech wind-stopping material that's worked great, but it doesn't have a name on it
2. A Specialized waterproof/windproof shell with individual fingers - but that they no longer sell (fyi, high end "breathable" waterproof gloves are great, but cheap waterproof gloves that don't breath would be terrible)
3. For below freezing riding Goretex winter gloves - but not their "cross" gloves. Actually their cross gloves would work fine for your temps, but not enough insulation for below freezing for me. I've always wondered what their Countdown gloves look like in person...

Anyways, something "windproof" would help, in my opinion, a *LOT* more than getting better liners. Liners are something I would only consider *after* getting a windproof glove.
