This - a Dutchie Chic 8 Speed

Very nice. When I first saw the picture my eyes scanned across from the bike as I thought "how big is that basket!" Then I realised it's your fence.

New bike arrived last week...

 

[Herr-B]

2 x Gatorskins from Evans, and 2 x Conti tubes from Wiggle. £46.56 total, out of the fifty I got from my parents for my birthday.

Gatorskins arrived this morning, I'd requested they be delivered to a (non-specific) neighbour. There are 10 houses closer to mine (including my immediate neighbours who where in on both sides all morning) than the house DPD actually delivered to.

 

[Archie_tect]

10 houses down you say... which way?

 

[Herr-B]

Haha, no. Not ten houses down, but there are ten closer. I've already collected and they're sat in my hall at the moment.

Got myself a Garmin 800 performance pack and a K-edge mount to go with it. The newer type with the insert.
Justified the cost of the mount as I was going to get the full navi pack but managed to get the full Europen Garmin maps for free (don't ask and I shall tell no lies), so that saved me £50 off the Garmin.

Some tracky bottoms for when the colder evenings eventually hit. I'm still not ready for the full lycranaut look, so no tights (that word just sounds so wrong!), but I do like the back pockets of the jersey I bought last week. Is there any more normal clothing with bike friendly features?

Oh, and the Tekro junior brake levers I ordered many moons ago have arrived at Wiggle from the far side of Andromeda, and are ready to ship!

 

[pauldavid]

Went to buy a new inner tube ended up with this.

So you ended up with two tubes then!

Mind you, that appears to be the most expensive looking inner tube packaging I've ever seen. And it's going to fill your recycling bin right up once you've got the tubes out to use on your bike.

This week i have purchased a set of cree lights a lovely shiny new rack for my sirrus and a set of rear panniers . May have even got a free divorce when the wife finds out . Ooops

 

[Frood42]

2 pairs of brake pads and some berry flavoured zero calorie energy tablet things that dissolve in water.

 

[Soltydog]

Ordered a few weeks ago, but only arrived today, so i'm sure it qualifies for this thread
Spa leather saddle for the road bike, stem & bar gel pads for tourer bars.

have you looked at Rose bikes for your dynamo CP? I got my dynamo (DH-3N80) wheel from them last year & far better price than any UK supplier (that I could find)

 

[Arjimlad]

Seeing as the mornings are getting colder, I ordered some BBB coated neoprene waterproof overshoes ready for winter. My old Shimano Pro ones are a bit tired, and not neoprene, although pretty water resistant.
