I think scrambling goes well with bacon.





I don't wear gloves when I'm scrambling eggs.



Yeah, but my gloves are pigskin leather, and my bacon is also pig.




When you're off on a hardcore scrambling trip and run out of food you can fry up your gloves. Noobs don't fry up their gloves.

Reinhold Messner ate his leather boots to stay alive once.

Fail.



Tape gloves are for Indian creek and pansies. I thought it was going to be a link to aid climbing.

I keep meaning to wear cycling gloves (fingerless) but always seem to forget them. The idea is that I'll have less trouble with dry, cracked skin on my palms.

Put the bolts INSIDE the cracks so I can use them as points of aid without anyone seeing that I'm doing it...
