Any recommendations for a decent pair of waterproof gloves.
My old Hein Gericke ones are done and lost their waterproof abilities a long time ago.
Been looking at the Richa cold protect GTX which seem to get great reviews but I fear they are a bit bulky for summer riding.

Alpinestars 365, thin goretex leather gloves.

I'm on my second pair and there will be a third when these wear out. They're ace.

Bit late now... but I bought these last year and am very happy with them so far:
Held Sting

No idea if you can get them in the UK though... Could get you a pair and bring to the 'Ring though  Laughing

Which Altbergs did you go for? The Roadrunner? I've had mine about 9 months, they're bloody brilliant.

I went for the roadster ones Chris. After that Jungholz monsoon run I promised myself a decent pair of waterproof boots.
I've ordered the Alpinestars 365 gloves.
