omg keith as lil jon just screams photoshop mashup!!

anyways, i was just at MEC yesterday to look at gloves and what they got for cycling isn't all that hot.. i mean, kinda exp and don't look/feel all that warm. there was a pair of what felt like neoprene's that i thought would be ok, but the palms aren't padded and i think the wind would rip em after a while.



^^ not what i thought would hold up to winter..


i went to the upstairs section and got a pair of other thin, but a little more robust nylon (claimed windproof) fingers/knuckles and the palms are padded with another textured cloth. i think they are for cross country skiiing..

they fit ok.. will see how they last for the donut run on sunday..
hmm they dont' seem to be listed on MEC's site, but they are thin lined and $29.
