Keeping hands warm and dry.

[Harold Hansen]

I contacted the Eugene Police Motorcycle unit and asked what they used for hand protection in the cold and rain. Thought that they might have some super warm gloves. Turns out that they use thin gloves so they can pull out their radar units, weapons and other things that we don’t use. They use a product made by a Salem company, Watershed, that goes over the handgrips and keeps the hands warm and dry. They don’t have a photo of it on their website. They do sell them to non police, but they are $150. Has anyone bought these? Think they call them handlebar covers. They are not just decorative things you wrap around your handlebar. Seems like they are a flexible cowling of some kind. You stick your hands inside them. Apparently they Velcro on one side to the handlebar and have a couple of waterproof zippers. I vaguely recall seeing them, but can’t remember exactly what they look like.
If anyone has seen then or has them, I’d like to see a photo. My regular email is [e-mail]
Anyone in the Salem area interested can check them out at:
WaterShed Inc.
2895 Valpak Rd. NE
Salem, OR 97303
Their hours are 7:30 to 4:00. Their number is 800-848-8092.
Hope it is ok to post this. I don’t work for them or have any ties.
My best,
Harold
