i need a bit of cheering up, so what are you getting yourself or being bought for xmas.
mrs ton bought me a nice made to measure coat from cioch in scotland..very nice too.
Blue Pig frame, which parcelforce say is on the van on the way to my house right now :o)
No idea, why would I want to ruin the surprise?
I've just bought myself Gran Turismo for the PSP, a litre bottle of Ardbeg 10, 4 CDs and a whole load of vinyl records I've searching for for years.
some 520 pedals in white, and some slippers (not spd ones)
Gravity dropper and 3/4 endura singletracks. Oh hopefully some nice socks, I love new socks, but rarely buy them for myself.
An inbred slot dropout frame hopefully!
Santa's already been to my house and dropped off a Tacx Fortius system, good on the old saint 8)
i love all the nice little cycling gifts that come at xmas.
got some merino socks and xtremities velo gloves last year.
still using them this year too.
blue pig would be a nice pressie, if brant decided to do it in a 29r version................BRANT..
No idea, but it will be amazing as Mrs_Soma_rich is awsome 🙂
DX lights from the missus
The kids? - I dunno
a lump of coal, because I've been a good boy this year 
I never get bike stuff for xmas - people wouldn't know what to buy, so:
socks
pants
slippers
books
possibly booze
Not got the foggiest idea!

Power kite! and a few other little bits and bobs.. 🙂
pissed! And bored sh*itless at the mother - in - laws!
A dose if my plans go a bit wrong
A new coffee machine (already using it), a JVC mini video camera. The wife is getting a Wii with the fit+ (+ a game for me)
carbon bars and some 717's. Yum.
A belstaff jacket!
A baby boy or Girl, due monday. Probably not much sleep either.
Bricking it, but still can't wait.
mos gets the best present! Good luck fella.
I'm getting something from Walz Caps from Mrs Mugsy. The joys of joint bank accounts and internet banking!
A baby boy or Girl,
I don't like presents that don't come in boxes - so difficult to wrap.
All the best and prepare yourself for a new definition of tired.
Half a sofa.
I'm buying Mrs North the other half.
Don't tell us we don't know how to live.
I've treated myself to an Intense 5.5. A tad indulgent I have to admit 🙂
two acrylic prints for the bathroom
rock......and.......roll
I bought myself a pressure washer last night, apparently I’m not allowed to use it, it’s being wrapped, despite me knowing what it is and how much it cost…
I may order a gravity dropper and call it a pressie from the nipper, not sure if that’ll fly though…
I will definitely be getting socks, but I need them, all of mine are shagged…
Christmas isn’t really for me anymore, but it can still be used as an excuse for buying myself stuff…
+1 Mister P - am I really the only other person here that actually understands the concept of a present? 😕
RP23. Currently wrapped up under the tree.
bet you have to be careful telling the relatives what that one is
gw and misterp
2 right miserable ****ers is what you are.......... 😕
Pink 456 and normaly cloths that don't fit.
A jumper knitted by the girlfriend, (actually a nice one, not with christmas trees all over it)
Scarlett Johansson
a w/e with Ed O's beard
I normally give the misses a long list of bike bits to choose from - this year I've left her to sort it herself; I'm looking forward to it more not knowing what I'm getting
probably sfa. 2 grandkids = nae money left for us.

You will love it, got mine a couple of months ago from 18bikes 😆
Not been out for 3wks or so due to chest/throat/flu etc. Just decided not to ride until it clears, made that mistake in the past.

Enjoying a suprise is hardly miserable behaviour...
Personally i have to say I like a nice suprise too, but since I'm a grown up now, my daughter gets to have all the fun and I just buy what I want (which normally means buying it myselft to avoid post xmas returns) practicality see...
Christmas is primarily for Kids, adults get time off work and food if they are lucky, pressies are an extra bonus, there's something about Jebus and some sheep or something in there too....
But it's mainly for the kids...
Donations to a Cancer charity, and nothing else.
Although I did accidentally buy myself a PS3 a couple of weeks ago 🙂
nowt 🙁
Some SLX brakes are winging their way to me as we speak and some other stuff the wife is doing her best to keep secret 😛
Well I think santa may drop a few bits of;
PA frame,
King headset,
Revelation forks,
SLX cranks
SLX brakes
Some new rims onto some wheels, (not sure how he is going to pull that one off)
And a new seatpost and saddle.

Hmmm... 🙄
maybe, just maybe.. a little surprise in your life may help fill that void you constantly seem intent on filling by hankering after [i]the next best thing[/i] simply to it show off to the world (of singletrack).. who knows? 😉
Merry Christmas!!
All I want for christmas is to stop being constantly ill 🙁
My parents are paying for me and my bro' to go boarding in Les Arcs. He's a bit strapped at the mo, so they paid for him, then thought it was only fair they paid for me too. Unreal. I'm still lost for words. Gotta make sure they get good presents this year.
NiteRider MiNewt USB for the commute.
gw, bah humbug, you miserly old dried up carcasss of a man 😉
Singular Swift Frame and carbon Niner forks....... 😀
trev, you NEED one of them carbon air jobbies..... 😉
One of the green On-One merino jerseys 🙂
Flight to Vancouver!
Now if I can just sell the intense frame to fund a bigger bike to take with me!
trev, you NEED one of them carbon air jobbies.....
Id like one, but they are going to be £1800 RRP i reckon, and it wont make me much quicker, defo not enough to justify the £1400 price difference anyway!
im getting time off work with my 5 year old son and 10 month old daughter so her 1st xmas ... that will do me fine with a nice bottle of wine 🙂
Probably nowt on the day- got a new watch a few weeks back which is going to be my present from the GF. Agreed with immediate family not to do presents this year, the last few years have had an air of unispired obligation about them from all sides, which struck us all as getting a bit pointless.
