is santa bringing you cycling gear?

[Hip Priest]

Well, I find that the great thing about being a cyclist is that family and friends know what to get you. A mug with a picture of a bike on it. Some socks with a picture of a bike on them. A t-shirt with a picture of a bike on it. A diary with a picture of a bike on it...etc

Same goes for cat lovers like me: nobody ever buys me a 5 kg bag of cat food as a pressie

On saying that, I got a great cycling present from a non cycling friend: a waterproof messenger style bag with a cat motif

Heard a whisper there's a pair of M+ with your name on 'em

I must have been very bad this year !!

some new Mavic rims to replace my worn out Rigida rims (plus new DT swiss spokes too) - I'll then have the pleasure of building the wheels over the Christmas period; although I might wait until the weather improves.

I'm expecting a new cassette off santa & anything else is a bonus although I believe santa may be bringing me an 11-32t instead of the 11-34t I asked for

I could tell you, but then that would get me into hot water. What I wanted is what I am getting. Bad Santa ..

 

[Gaz Vickers]

I very much doubt it! Although having dropped enough hints, i'm fairly certain they have fell on deaf ears! So if somebody wants to buy me something cycling related.......Feel free

Wife's just ordered me a set of Oakley jaw bones with a addition of clear lenses , suppose I should look surprised but I've seen the email confirmation

I want the 2012 Giro d'Italia DVD! Great motivation for riding the trainer Here's a cool list of gifts for those on a tight budget that any cyclist is sure to love : http://lexalbrecht.blogspot.ca/2012/12/christmas-gifts.html

If you know what you are getting for a Christmas present, what's the point of wrapping it and opening it on Christmas day? Why don't you just use it now.

I've never understood or liked knowing what I was getting for Christmas or birthdays, I like a surprise, much more fun.

My missus bought me a Airace track pump, as my last one Lidl's came apart while using it. She didn't even bother to wrap it, which would of been pointless.

I agree with you, after the "hamster wrapping" episode of a few years ago.

Do 27" wheels fit down the chimney without getting bent, that is the question?

I treated myself to a late xmas present, now I'm single again. A Forme Longcliffe 3.0 2012 with Sora which will be mine in March/April.

Not actual pic, but from ebay, so forgive the bar and saddle angles.

And a C&D Cycles Kettering jersey (my LBS)
