Ute Mitts

We went to the MMBA Expo today. Lots of cool mountain biking gear and info to check out. Considering the complete absence of mountains Michigan's Lower Peninsula, there is really quite a network of mountain biking trails, thanks in large part to the MMBA. We don't do much mountain biking these days, but someday that may change.

We picked up the Moose Mitts for my Ute. They seem very nice. They are simply a large mitt that covers the handlebar and secures with velcro. The mitt is made with a durable woven nylon outside and a soft fleece lining inside. There's an interior pocket, and little interior loop to keep the mitt in position. The opening is designed so that it's easy for the rider's gloved hands to slide inside. Very simple. Very cool.
