What an exciting life I lead! (although, saying that, I do love new tyres, so.....)

A 22" monitor for work.
Not quite the postman, but I met Timbur to pick up a brown spoon and going to collect a headset from Halfords later

No pics of any of it as it is too boring!

Some Uberbike Race matrix pads. Thought I'd give them a go.

My new KS Lev is inbound for my FS Bike, the one of the HT is too big 🙁

Much more exciting.

Ritchey 1 1/4 WCS stem for the new road race bike. Sadly my very nice Carbon Matrix stem won't fit. Damn that Giant and their newfangled standards. Apparently most of the pros are riding 1 1/4 so how come we can't source stems? Not even Shimano Pro - and they sponsor the team.

Apparently Pro do one that's on most of the pro bikes but it's not for sale yet. Which Ritchey one did you get? I rather like the look of the [url= http://ritcheylogic.com/road/stems/superlogic-c260-stem.html ]Superlogic[/url] one but 200 quid seems quite a lot for a stem!
