Had a critical issue...was afraid I might not make Inzane!

Glove blow out


As you can see...my glove blew out. Very serious. Old, worn, stretched out...and two seams let go. Loose gloves...yuck.

Hech, my spots are becoming mis-aligned!

Mis-aligned Spots!


Now, y'all (that's a Texas technical term) that do the distances know...but a man's riding gloves are important! I am very picky about mine...I've worn the same brand, size, and pattern for over 30 years. Doeskin...skin-tight. Buy 'em small and suffer for a day or two so they fit exactly. Mine seem to be good for about 20,000 miles of Texas sun, which is fairly impressive.

They are a distance rider's secret weapon.

Lives have been saved with these gloves...

So, I searched the metro-mess in desperation yesterday...and finally found my brand...and size.

Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!


Oooooo....baby.....


Now my spots will line up again!


New gloves. Almost better than sex!

Ya' know, the things that I'm picky about size/make/model on like that (For me it's do-rags) when one wears out, and I find the replacements, I make it a point to buy about 1/2 dozen replacements... That way if the company goes outta business, changes the style, whatever, I've got my own personal stash to buy me a few years to find a suitable replacement...

...just saying... Smiley

When I'm at work during the summer and go to shake somebody's hand...they almost always pull back and say something like, "Hey, what?"

One day, at the Doc...for something unrelated...he saw my hands and asked, "What happened to your hands?"

I held one up, looked at it, and gasped, "What the heck is *that*? They weren't like that when I came in here!"

Docs. Sheesh. No sense of humor.
