What have you treat yourself to? I've just bought a nice KCNC Scandium Wing stem for the other half to wrap up...what's your guilty secret?

More reasonable than last years chainset.

Christ almighty, merry christmas to you.

I don;t think anyone with a missus could have got away with that unless they'd just won the lotto anyway.

We're not buying anything for each other (although we will be away skiing so if that counts it's a fairly expensive pressie). In fact, apart from my young nephews and nieces I'm not buying any presents at all this year, we've arranged "no presents" pacts all round

I find it best to buy your own bike bits, otherwise she might find out how much they cost.

I always ruin Christmas for myself anyway, and I've done it again this year. Just bought myself some Bomber 44s, Magura Louise brakes, new wheels and a Transition Spitfire frame. Not sure anyone is going to be able to top that for me on Christmas Day.

Let's just say that a list of warm winter biking kit has been left in a prominent location. I don't actually _need_ any hardware at the moment, at least nothing that she could afford without find out how much some of this stuff actually costs...
