You obviously haven't been on a bike ride with her. That "5mph" thing is either historical, or BS!!
So who got a bike for Xmas?

I received a pump...for pumping things !
It's brilliant, you push down on the handle and wind comes out of the end of the tube. Then when the wind has stopped coming out of the tube, you pull up on the handle and start the whole process over again.
Hours of fun to be had !!

BSO alert! It's an Amazon special, and it seems the seller is trying to make a few bob over what they paid for it. The 23" isn't available, but the 21" is reduced to £140 from its normal price of £150.

The Ammaco Colorado is a fine machine with years or racing heritage and pedigree. The only problem is that the one being sold on Gumtree is too scared to leave the house.

No new bikes but a few bike-related gifties for us this year.
I bought and fitted Mrs Chris some new V-brakes for her commuter, since the old ones never centred properly and were a bit of a bugger to adjust. She is very happy with them
She bought me a new cassette for my MTB with a nice low gear for slogging up Dartmoor climbs, and a pair of white-wall tyres for my 1950s Raleigh Sport to replace the (possibly original!) crumbling ones I've been chancing my luck on.
