Cycling apparel
Long gravel days put more stress on contact points than road rides: rough surfaces send vibration through the handlebar, and hours in the saddle make fit and padding matter.

What to look for
Full-finger or short-finger
Full-finger gloves add protection in a crash and in cold weather; short-finger gloves are cooler in the heat.
Padding is personal
Gel padding can reduce pressure on the palm, but too much can feel vague on the bars. Try gloves on if you can.
