This always used to stress me out as I was more concerned about delaying other people. But hey ho, they insist I pay so I take my time, gloves off, find money, etc etc. I do always have a small bag attached to the bars to keep loose change in and the ticket. Worse in the wet as it always take longer to get gloves on and off.
I have seen guys trying to rush and it always ends in tears as they drop their glove or the ticket falls to the ground.
To be fair I have never encountered other motorists trying to hurry me up
OK, thanks for that - I guess that is the issue that used to concern me but as you say, if the authorities want to levy a charge, it will cause delays.
I improved the gloves on and off issue by using silk liner gloves from Snow & Rock - before that, I could spend 10 minutes trying to get the standard linings back into my gloves before I could put them back on. The silks are thin enough that for fuel stops I can remove just one outer glove and leave the silk in place - putting the outer back on is as easy as you could wish. The other bonus is I can easily wash the silks regularly (when I remember) so they don't get too skanky and the outers don't get too sweaty in the summer! Point to note though - don't mess with Velcro hook-link fastenings as it will tend to shred the silks
