Howdy,
I have hurt my self at work and have temperarily lost the use of the thumb on my left hand! :thumbsup: :icon_cry: torn ligaments,
Which as you can imagine doesn't help when I'm trying to change gears!
I'd normally cope, But I'm out in mondello this saturday on an open day, and then out again with torque-irl.com on friday,
So What I'm looking for is a glove that I can wear on my left hand that has maybe grippy rubber on the palm of it so I can grip the gear knob with out using my thumb!
Any ideas???
I have been to a sports shop in Naas, and the chemist, and the only thing I have come up with so far is rubber brick layers gloves, but they are quite bulky!
Thanks lads!

I have a right hand if your need a gear change but thats all im offering to do :lol:

Can you bandage up your thumb Dan :ponder2:
 
I was quite suprised the sport shop did't have anything like goalkeepers gloves!
That would be ideal i imagine
My thumb is bandaged up, I'd have to unbandage and stick a glove on!

Yeah those or workshop gloves, the workshop gloves are really thin but have rubber on the palm and fingers
 
Hi mate, I have a pair of underarmour gloves. They are nice and thin on the palm and fingers with little rubber UA logos all over them for grip. I live in celbridge if thats any good to ya pal. I think they are used for american football.
 
I've a pair of fingerless gloves i used to wear playing rugby. Nice and grippy on the palm too. Any use to you then let me know! :thumbsup:
 
gun o praem is your only man :thumbs up: :thumbs up: its that thumb there aint it :icon_grin:.joking aside its a painful experience about 3 weeks before its back right .a pair of dewalt fingerless gloves have a pair if you want them or there in b&q .
 
Sucks alright!
Thanks very much lads,
Is anyone going to the open trackday on saturday??
I have a pair of illuminous green bricklayers gloves,
But if any of you's are coming along then at least I can have a choice, If not then I hook up with one of you's if that's ok?
Thanx again,
Dan
 
Dan,

See if you can get a pair of these, id say lifestyle sports would have them, and you can cut out the thumb or whatever if needs be!!! Great grip from these gloves.
