ianpinder, ho ho ho ho 😀
Spec defroster boots and merino socks. Well timed
nowt.
in fact, not only did i get no bike-related presents but i got no anything related presents.
thought i was okay with spending christmas on my own, but now it feels more like spending christmas [i]alone[/i] and it's not that great...
going to see my parents tomorrow though, so we'll see.
xherbivorex i'm on my own this christmas, going to cook a roast tonight just for myself lol. luckly i'm working so not to bad at least i have one person to talk to, even if shes not very interesting.
no bike stuff - i get all that for myself all year round!
Got a Moomin comic strip book, some well needed new pants and Freddie the German Shorthaired Pointer is now sponsored by me! also got a framed print of me, the lass and 2 good friends at their wedding in summer.
A very pleasing haul!
Well somebody bought me a pump I don't need or want from halfrauds. But they also gave me the receipt as well 😀
Oh and singletrackworld gave me jealousy... I do like that bike club t shirt.
RP23 🙂
Hope Pro II's on Mavic XC819 rims. Got them as an early present this year, that and a load of base layers and a pair of NW Celcius to keep the chill off at puffer!
A DHB long sleeve base layer,sealskin socks and a new mp3 player to use on my road bike ! 😀
xherbivorex - if it's your first "C" on your own then it's bound to feel different. I did that last year - went to my favourite riding area on my own, took a picnic plus flask of coffee and enjoyed the quiet trails.
Don't beat yourself up and get rid of the guilt if there is any. Contemplative time is necessary sometimes but, most importantly, you need to like yourself despite whatever circumstances have put you in your current situation. Hold your head up high and don't look back.
I was looking forward to another solo "C" this year but have compromised somewhat. But that brings its own difficulties.
saint cranks for my orange alpine fr! cant wait to fit them.
One of those helmet cam things talked about on here will arrive soon 🙂
Go Pro HD
Gravity Dropper Classic

A pair of those superthin Canfield Bros. Crampon pedals from this months mag will be waiting for me when i get home.
My lovely girl got me a Gore Softshell jacket and skull-cap... Hmmmm warm training!!! 😀
In my stocking I have been given a waterproof map bag that attaches to my handlebars which will come in useful for my 7 Stanes maps to stop me getting lost around Mabie, Glentress, Dalbeattie at long last 🙂
Hope everyone is enjoying their pressies.

I'm now in trouble for forgetting to mention my Race Face pint glass!!! 🙂
Santa obviously reads these threads as my stocking contained one of the mini DV cams (which looks pretty good for the money at first glance) and DX SSCP7 light (which has actually been on a couple of pre-Xmas spins!)
Merry Christmas everybody
Ahhh, weeks of 'accidentally' leaving ST mag lying open at certain pages paid off with a Pace 3x3 jacket from my (much) better half... how lucky I am 😀
Happy days to everybody.
"To The Mountains!"
No bike related stuff but a very nice set of coffees and related paraphenalia from Ms D!
Off to my Dads now for dinner - usually get money from him so i should get enough to renovate my Float RLC's 🙂
A special thankyou to santa 😀
A wingnut hyper 3.0, bamboo base layer, muvi video camera, joplin uppy downy seatpost, hope bb,
2 bottles single malt and a partridge in a pear tree 😉
Have a great day people, I'm off after lunch for my first ever christmas day ride 😀

From others: Some endura trousers & a workstand
Tomorrow: £150 christmas monies to spend in the bike shops 8) Looking at hope skewers and seat clamp and a thomson post, and the visa can get the stem 😆
Hora, Euro, but they can be a little tight around the shoulders though. They aren't big around the waist, def. got cyclists in mind, more mid pack (or Cat. 6, as they prefer)
so far a skull cap (needed), coffe cup holder for my handlebars, so no more spilling my starbucks on the ride home from the gym, gps bracket for the road bike so no more getting completely lost and going around in circles,
