Pushing gloves
Since I started pushing around more, my Pearl Izumi bike gloves have stretched out and I have a blister on my thumb. Also, the velcro strap is kind of stingey on the back of the hand. What kind of pushing gloves do you folks have or recommend? Thanks.

I use the ones from www.palmproducts.co.uk in the UK - the resin stuff really grips and they are easy to put on. I am sure there is something similar in US - you could always import these......I have bought stuff from US before.

Well, I just ordered a pair of "Para Push" 3/4 finger "Hatch" gloves from Allegro Medical. Since my fingers are somewhat curled I like the spandex back that will hopefully make it easy to get on and the gel padded palm will hopefully save my hands. I also like the full thumb so it will hopefully protect the skin because right now I have a red, raw spot on the outside of my DIP joint on my thumbs from pushing. Anyway, I hope they work out. Thanks.

Been using these. Might want to try for the summer. Gel pad as well the protect, non-skid strip helps alot. Terry on the thumb is good for sweat and the loops at fungers helps with easy on and off. Price is decent as well.

the best pushing gloves i've found are sailing gloves. They're made to withstand mucho abuse and they're tacky as hell so you don't have to grip as hard to push. They're fantastic...
