Just passing along what seems like a good deal on some closeout priced gloves. 

Cortech / Tour Master Injector Gloves  $39.99

http://www.newenough.com/street/closeouts/gloves/cortech_by_tour_master/injector_motorcycle_gloves.html


Still had several colors and sizes available.  Don't have any direct experience with these gloves, but other Tour Master stuff I've seen/owned has been pretty decent.  I ordered a couple pairs (I like to stock up on gloves), so I'll try to give a review when I get them.

Great catch Cam!  I ordered a pair myself.  Can't have enough gloves you know.   :D

Got these yesterday.  Haven't ridden with them, but the seem like really good gloves.  The leather is thick but soft so they're pretty comfortable/flexible.  Seems like ample protection without restricting movement or dexterity.  Interestingly, I bought two pair in the same size but the one seems to fit better than the other.  The blue/white ones fit perfectly, but on the black pair the fingers seemed too long for me, so if I put my hand in far enough to not have extra material at the fingertips it was putting pressure on the skin between my fingers. 

All in all, I'd definitely recommend them even just to have as a backup.

No.  They were comfortable up to 80º for me. I wore them yesterday on Chris's ride and I had to switch to my warm weather gloves at midday.

My pants are Vanson's with a mix of textile & leather. Leather in the important "contact-points" if you crash, but breathable textile in the not-so-important areas.

Chris,
I wear moisture-wicking clothing underneath my leathers - the cooler clothing really helps with "monkey butt".  ;)  Yesterday I wore a bicycle riding jersey that worked really well for wicking the sweat away and cooling me down quickly after I took off my jacket.  You can buy both T-shirts and long-sleeved T-shirts.  For the bottoms, I wear wicking boxers and pants.  I recommend boxers that do not have seams where you sit.  If you can't find the seamless kind in men's styles, then ladies' boxers will do, too.  The pants are lightweight athletic-style pants, similar to sweats, which are less bulky than jeans under the leathers.  If you don't plan on taking your leathers off during the day, you can also wear wicking long underwear.  All of this clothing is available at http://www.sierratradingpost.com/ and http://www.wickers.com/ .  Ask Brent for more specific details.

Good luck!
Debby
