Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Half finger, non-padded, Uveto. They have leather palm. I'd probably prefer leather back too.

Full Finger Giro Bravo all the time. Only thing that fits my hand properly. No problems with being hot either.

Like others here I would probably also go with a pair of Mechanix if I found some I liked, but even those are a delicate fit.

padded 1/2 finger when it's warm.
when it's too cold for that I go full finger ... duh
in the winter I'll go as far as glove liners with chemical hand warmers and loose fitting winter gloves over that
