Well, yesterday I had the surgery to fix my ring finger.
Dupuytren's Contracture:

Dupuytren's contracture has no cure, only a surgical fix,
I noticed mine coming on for about a year, and when my ring started to hurt my finger, I used soap and water to remove the ring and move it to the other hand.
Saw an Orthopedic Surgeon and got it done.
Guess I won't have my hands on a steering wheel or handlebar for some time.
If you notice any finger starting to curl up and you can't make it straight, better check into it.
