 @RedBurn: I was under the impression they were changing the venue this year. Could be wrong but I thought I read that somewhere

 I don't always jump big jumps, but when I do I like to be able to recite the Gettysburg address 3x while I'm in the air.

 Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

 I can't really grasp what it must feel like to spend that long in the air, maybe like time has stopped.

 Can someone please clue me in as to why so many high level riders are now riding without gloves? I have mulled it over in my mind for at least five minutes now and can't come up with a decent answer. It allows for a more intimate connection with the bike? You like scraping the skin off your hands after a wreck and putting it in a Ziploc bag to later remind your grandchildren just how rad you were? Or is that one badass did it in a video, and now other badasses/want to be badasses figure it must be the proper thing to do?

Anyone have any insights?

 i hate wearing gloves, i've never like them. I only wear them when it's raining b/c my hands slip off the bars. it's just a preference.
  • 1 0
 Your rambling inquiry makes it sound like you already have decided why other people don't wear gloves, but I suppose I'll bite and give you a reason... Gloves bunch up on the palm and compromise the surface contact to the grip of the bar. Even very tight gloves inevitably bunch up. Your hands and feet are the main contact points to your bike and they need to ideal, otherwise your focus might be misdirected away from the task at hand- riding your bike. Today's handlebar grips provide great traction for bare hands allowing you to ride without gloves. The only true hindrance is sweat, and if that isn't an issue, then to each their own. I don't wear gloves on bike or moto, and when I crash I don't try to post up- I prefer to roll with it. So no ziploc bags necessary
