I use mine as an alternate position (and obviously, to be more aero!) on 24-hour races, and I used them every minute I could on RAAM, just to give myself the aero advantage and also to give my hands a break. On "normal" rides, under 100 miles, it's not necessary.
For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
