A Jedi coaching gift voucher off the missus.

scott_mcavennie2 I got the same ... can't wait!

see you guys soon then 🙂

more than 3,300 for a xc bike!!!!!!!!! omg!

i paid less than that for my new dh bike! pff

we need to start revolting regarding bike prices! thats stupid! even if they are good. still doesnt justify that!

I was thinking that, and it's not even got XTR all over it! 😯 Nice though.

Nowt exciting. Books 'n stuff, but a nice box of quality cider from the outlaws. Far more excited about what we got the little ones this year

a new evoc backpack and even though I asked my brother for a book( the last chronicles of Thomas covenant) he bought me a new winter wetsuit so I'm chuffed to bits 😀

I got a Topeak Joe Blow Sprint Comp track pump, very nice shiny XTR M972 rear mech, Met Velano helmet and some new books. Best of all I got to spend it with my very lovely mrs Stayhigh which was just great 😀

No bike stuff or bike related stuff at all. But my dad got me a sledge And my brothers got me DVD box sets to watch after I break my arms sledging.

Ortlieb saddle bag, multi tool, bottle of Laphroaig, book about Ukrainian tractors, a collage made up of lots of my old concert tickets for my hideaway and of course our wee baby 🙂

i got a great selle italia saddle from the kids,some overshoes,a lusso thermal top and some spd's all in all a great day 😀

I got a Tanita Body Composition Monitor Scale, a few books, Racing Weight by Matt Fitzgerald & The Cyclist's Training Bible by Joe Friel. Some Nike sweat bands, a very nice large coffee cup that fits under our expresso machine. A pair of very nice slippers from Next and some chocolate, although my usual dark chocolate terrys orange was replaced by a white chocolate orange which has crunchy bit in 😥

Santa didnt bring issue 62 🙁

A lovely Tissot watch 8)

Bike wise (wrong kind mind), a seat cowl for me R1

Nothing bikey for me.

Korg Pitchblack guitar tuner
Peter Kay tickets for next year 😀
Some CDs (Goo Goo Dolls, Every Time I Die, Pretty Reckless) and Blurays (Se7en, Scott Pilgrim, Toy Story 3)
Ted Baker smelly stuff
Obligatory chocolates and sweets

Good haul 🙂

1:43 scale model of a Pisten Bully piste machine, complete with crane on the rear!
Loads of chocolates.
Some cash...that'll be for this summers Alps trip then.

One of Santa's little helpers presented me with this interesting looking box....

Unfortunately, it was not a shiny new set of U-Turn Pikes but a much needed track pump 🙂

Nothing

gf parents have paid for a golfing (digging in my case) weekend away with them. Hotel, food, instructor and travel all included. I can't wait to race buggies.

parents paid for a set of flights

The mrs saw me looking at uplift days so got me a POC VPD tee! Just waiting for the urge helmets to become available now.

Well I got the usual.
Stuff I asked for and that pleased me.
Stuff I didn't asked for but still pleased me
And stuff I did ask not to have and I don't like. Go figure 😉

I got some money that I was told would have to help cover the cost of the Night Vision jacket I bought 3 weeks ago when the old one died.....

KCNC Wing stem and a lovely Troute Liberator 3.0

...going out for a turkey-burning test ride any minute now!

4 New wine glasses, some choccies, a new tie, and torque wrench, and ordered a new gilet today, all good really, as if i need it i buy it when required.

And a new dressing gown, very cozy grey fleece number
And some steel cored tyre levers off my mate from down the street

Had the best Chrimbo for a long time....Contour HD GPS helmetcam, Altura Attack Waterproof 3/4's, a pair of Schwalbe Fat Alberts(!), and a luuurveley Citizen watch, AND then, cos i quite fancied one anyhow, i bought the missus a Garmin 205 Forerunner GPS (there is a small chance i may borrow it, make sure it works properly). Thank the Lord for Christmas Bonuses.

Received a nice set of Bos DeVilles.
All fitted by me yesterday.Not ridden because i feel awful.

However, I also managed to get myself a terrible cold and I'm sitting here right now hacking up a lung while trawling the forum for [i]enterainment[/i] ?.

Anyway I hope you've had a good Xmas and I wish you all a happy new year.

Treated myself a bit too much on the bike front though.

Same here Keyses2; not bothered though, as I'm not Christian, so don't follow the rituals. Haven't wasted a single penny on anyone. Which means I can now spend on myself in the January sales! 😀
