    gloves are the simplest of things, easy to stash in a brain bucket, can't understand why people ride without them really

    Back doing the instructing thing last century, I remember some clown wannabee biker showed up on a Hardly Ableson as he didn't have a licence . Said we could ignore the bigger than 250 for course but not the lack of gloves.
    Said he needed the extra 'Feel' on controls.

    Just go grab some gloves bud.
    Never saw him again.

    Guess he tells that story where he told The Man (volunteers) where to stick it. No one tells Big Nigel what to wear. Didn't need any riding training anyway.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Though somehow my sister bought my first leather gloves (ones I had weren't) while she was at massey. Must ask her about that.
    No one takes "free". Put $10 and they will be taken (nicked). Has worked several times to get rid of junk at the roadside
