I've been amassing winter clothing as well - unfortunately for my check book my love of shopping extends to cycling. I was really excited when the temperatures dipped into the 30's because I thought I could try out my new stuff. But I'm confused about my hands. The long gloves bug me - my hands sweat. I had to go home in the middle of my ride and switch to my summer gloves. Anyone else have this problem? Is there anything bad that can happen to my fingers if I don't wear gloves in the winter? I already have nerve damage in my wrists and hands so I don't really notice the cold. I just want to make sure I won't get frostbite or something.
