    well, I have progrip gelgrips which I hear help some. also try not to grip hard. those are the main things, I think. Every few minutes, I'll drop one hand or the other to allow a little blood to flow down. some of my friends who ride pure sports bikes will just let their hand go numb and keep ridin though. I prefer the first methods but sometimes, I'll ignore it and ride on.
