Training for sprint Tri's I really don't take the time to put gloves on for riding and I've noticed my hands sweat so bad that it's actually hard to keep certain hand positions. Are there tricks or special bar tape, etc. that can be used? Does anyone else run into this issue?
I use gloves whenever I ride, including during a triathlon.

Sprint duathlon in Arkansas in July. Wore the gloves but forgot to take them off so the 2nd run was done with gloves on. Big whoop-I was just trying not to finish last so a few seconds for comfort's sake wasn't going to kill me. I say if it means you're more comfortable, put them on your bars and slide into them as quickly as you can. What do I know?
