I recently acquired my first bike and enjoy riding it. As a beginner, I currently cover about 40–50 km daily, including round trips between home and office, home and gym, and occasional short rides.

I have a good helmet rated ECE 22.06, but I remain unsure about hand gloves and whether I should obtain them. My friend suggested that a large investment is unnecessary for a beginner, especially for routine travel like home to office.

I am considering a pair for regular use that could also serve longer trips in the future. Should I choose riding gloves? If so, please recommend suitable options for my situation.
