Driving Gloves?

  1. Yes. Essential for the proper enthusiast.

    35.3%
  2. No. Strictly for poofs.

    35.3%
  3. Yes, but I'd prefer no one saw me wearing them.

    17.6%
  4. No. It's a road car being driven on the road. Maybe on track I would.

    5.9%
  5. I just do whatever Ian, Greg, and Ashpan tell me to

    I pretty much always drive with gloves on a spirited drive.

    The 911 has a thinnish steering wheel and the beautifully soft Greycar leather gloves I wear are a treat to wear.

    What type of casual outfit do you think they suit the most?

    Tracksuit pants? Branded shoes, shirt, hat?

    Imagine how cool it would be sitting back at the local surf club all wearing gloves… :p

    Apparently not Steve. I have Dents too, they are very comfortable and like these new Porsche gloves, the fingertips are treated so you can use a touchscreen. Perfect for texting while driving :p

    In a sleek Ferrari, through twilight's embrace,
    With gloves clad in leather, I find my own space.
    A symphony of engine, a dance of the road,
    As I navigate freely, my story is told.

    Amongst rolling hills and city's bright gleam,
    I'm not just a dreamer, but part of the scheme.
    For in this moment, I'm wholly alive,
    In the freedom to be, in the drive to thrive.

    My heart beats its rhythm, both fierce and so bold,
    In the warmth of acceptance, in stories untold.
    For being gay is not just a label, you see,
    It's the essence of me, it's how I am free.

    With each turn of the wheel, I break through the mold,
    In the roar of the engine, my truth is retold.
    No longer confined by the chains of the past,
    In this Ferrari, I'm soaring, I'm free at last.

    So let the world gaze upon this display,
    As I drive with my gloves, in my own special way.
    For being gay and driving a Ferrari, you see,
    It's about embracing oneself, it's about being free.

    In all my nearly 35 years of driving, I can’t recall seeing one driver in another car with gloves on.

    You lot really are weird.

    In a Lotus they ride, Steve and his beau,
    Through winding roads where wildflowers grow.
    With the wind in their hair, and the sun shining bright,
    They journey together, their hearts taking flight.

    No gloves on their hands, just the touch of the wheel,
    As they navigate pathways, both concrete and steel.
    For Steve and his beau, it's the freedom they seek,
    In the open expanse, where dreams dare to speak.

    In their Lotus they find, not just speed and thrill,
    But moments of joy that time cannot still.
    With laughter and love, they traverse the land,
    Hand in hand, they understand.

    For gloves may be worn by some in their drive,
    But for Steve and his beau, it's the feeling alive.
    In the roar of the engine, in the pulse of the road,
    Their love story unfolds, a beautiful ode.

    So let them drive on, in their Lotus so sleek,
    With passion and purpose, they dare to seek.
    For in the journey they share, it's not just the car,
    But the bond between them, brighter than any star.

    Only peasants have to drive to get to the surf club :)
    If you can't walk to the beach, you may as well live in the city...
