    Wife and family are asking for my list but all i can think of is an RRP Neoprene mudguard.

    I don't need anything for the bikes or indeed for anything else so i need some serious inspiration.

    Ask that they donate money to charity instead there are all sorts of charity schemes for this that you can have something specific done in your name – toilets and wells – that sort of thing

    I've asked for riding socks, riding gloves, wire on DVD and some after shave – to be honest I'll be happiest with the socks!! 😮

    My mum's got me a 700mm flat bar. I keep hinting to my wife that I want a cross bike. She keeps telling me to bugger off.

    £10 limit for us. I love it, no more expensive tat that I'll never use and the presents I get are usually booze or food…

    I don't even need any socks!

    The limit sounds good but my wife would never agree, she had no problem in writing her 2 page list!

    Well I'll be getting bladdered for xmas. 😀

    As we don't have kids we are doing i present with a limit of about £10 which i find makes it more fun and difficult to choose, I'll prob go for an inner tube and repair kit and yes i know thats two 🙄

    How sad is this – my Xmas present (to myself/from my wife – all the same) is a Dyson ball vacuum!!

    I have a penchant for vacuuming don't you know!!!

    I'm asking for a life. Touch wood it's on it's way. On a more mercenary level I'd like the following:-

    A new laptop with a broadband GPS dongle.
    A Colnago Cross Prestige – my god what a beautiful bike!! It'd get it.
    A fanny magnet
    A hurrendously expensive pair of cycling shoes. I have a number of pairs of cheap shoes which are great but I just want to say F you to cycling shoe snobs.
    The charisma of Paul Newman.

    The budget idea is the best way of doing it really!

    An SLR and some guitar effects pedals would be nice, but to be honest just the feeling of being happy is good enough for me
