I just opened up a new bike work stand. And it's a beaut!

What did you get that you really like?

Off to the olds in a bit, wife spoilt me rotten. Bose quiet comfort 15 headphones and a display case for my watches! Apparently I have a mint sauce jersey from the inlaws.

Top pressie is definitely 2 tickets for Johnny Marr at the Ritz in March, from mrs Binners. Can't wait 🙂

She also got me a framed, vintage print saying 'bicycles may be stored here at the owners risk, please remove any valuables from your saddlebag'. To be put up where my bikes inevitably find their way indoors 😆

Wanted a more "everyday" watch, but something that could still work under a suit when off on my travels. Very pleased indeed! Will be changing the strap for a TimeFactors NATO one shortly.

I actually quite like that one Flashy, classy rather than egregiously bling.

Happy Christmas guys! Pretty good cycling gifts here.

Wide riser bars
Head cam and accessories
Training session with Ed Oxley at Gisburn
Overshoes for the road bike
One of those stolen bike tracking things that goes in your seat tube

Pretty well spoilt really.

Good one here, got tickets for Sarah Millican next September, an insect hotel, a new kitchen & a Bose sound dock off the mrs. 101 Whisky's to try before you die (+ some samples) off the bro in law, a 12yr old Glenlivet off another bro in law, a spurious Islay malt off the other bro in law, a 12 yr old Bowmore off my eldest, a bottle of Bombay Sapphire off the stepdaughter & Guy Martins 'How Britain Worked' book off stepson.

Happy me!

Just activated my Singletrack subscription, (Ta Ed, no adverts, WOO HOO!) + stuff to tube-less my wheels and a nice hoody.

Only disappointment so far is no-one will play Hide and Seek with me, but off round to a house with incumbent 3 and 7 year olds shortly, so that should be fixed also!

You got a gift voucher to spend with your own wife?

Ta! That's what I was after, really. Smart, every day and not too shouty. I have a lovely vintage watch for posh, and then a G-shock for getting dirty. Wanted something in between that wasn't as smart as the Omega. 🙂

Oh, and waiting as a surprise in the fridge for me this evening;

Christmas in a glass!

My sister is still responding to her braf therapy. I'd like the same next year please. And for bikes; a set of teatowels for garage duties. Should save a few "discussions". 😉

What model is that, and how much?

Not worn a watch in about 20 years, but that picture is very close to making me change that tradition.
