No cycling related presents but didn't ask for any but will be treating myself to an early birthday present next month to some specialized roubaix bar tape and 2 zee bottle cages ^_^

No longer a Specialized fanboy
I never ask for cycle related stuff. You see, my dad used to work for Comrade Cycles (See here http://www.cyclechat.net/threads/comrade-cycles-dalaston-1950s-60s.77435/ I thought I had sent Globalti a thanks for his post, but it seems I didn't... So thanks!)

He still thinks that their bikes are cutting edge so if I were to ask him he wouldn't have a clue, and he certainly wouldn't understand a "plastic" bike, the cost of a plastic bike or why you would pay so much for a plastic bike with only one crossbar!

So Im happy with my Terrys chocolate orange (its not Terrys - its mine) and bottle of Rum!

The older I get, the faster I used to be ...
Sigma Computer/Cadence for the new Rose, pair of GP4000s', Light inner tubes and gloves from Planet X. (The only cycling related present I received that I didn't give myself was a bike stand from Edinburgh Bike Coop - and there might be a copy of 'Bicycling Anthology' to come as well). Oh, and lots of other 'Christmas presents' purchased between January and December ^_^

I took advantage of the Halford's sale and got my wife a new turbo trainer - 60% off. I bought a set of new Planet X wheels for my Croix De Fer - not really Xmas gifts as we don't celebrate but we do like the sales this time of year brings.

Jannie got a TREK Lexa SL with decent touring tyres and a rear rack.

I got a Nikon D5100 camera and lenses. Not cycling related? It will be when we go on tour. :0)

DHB bib tights. Family consensus seems to have been that a new 105 rear mech or snow tyres were not Christmassy enough so I'll be logging on and ordering them myself.
On the non-biking front I got a book and a few other bits I'm very pleased with.
