Not through real thick gloves.. Olympia makes a mid weight that works well.

Absolutly the BEST is a Gerbings electric jacket liner.. Just get the 
thermostat or you'll get too warm! Nothing like having warm arms as

got the non insulated ( like a wind breaker) and I have yet to find 
any temp that I can't ride in comfortably.. And they warranty their 
stuff forever!
