I don't know about bike rules but I would consider this stuff to be illegal per rule 4.cc Streamlining in any class where streamlining is not specifically allowed. On a car.  :dhorse:

After a lot of detective work I have tracked down a supplier for "Dimple Wrap",,

The stuff is reasonably priced, however due to our Australian $$ and exorbitant shipping, i cant justify "bang for buck"

 If you require some, message me on this board and I will pass their contact on to you  :-)

It is typically applied to the forward 15 to 25 percent of the frontal area, based on personal observation.  Google "perforated handlebar grip tape."  Bicycle handlebars and tennis raquets handles are where I have seen it used.

Wow!

There's something we needed ? something to help you in your terrified grip from falling off.

You do not need much wrap for a bike.  There were small patches of the stuff at the leading edges of Al's bike when I saw it.  He did not cover the entire bike.  One or two rolls of handlebar tape should be enough.
