#2920: ForeWarmed

Today’s invention is long motorcycle gauntlets which have copper wires woven into the palms.

These wires extend across the backs of the gauntlets so that a rider’s forearms are covered by a mesh of them.

Most motorcycles with heated grips are capable, even on a frigid day, of making one’s palms so hot as to be locally uncomfortable.

These gauntlets use the extra heat to stop the forearms becoming numbed on the stagnation surfaces, which is a major contribution to loss of rider concentration on a very cold day.
