New Stumpjumper currently sat next to my desk at work thanks to the nice man from DPD.
What have you signed for today?
Stainless steel screws and nails for cladding my Garden Room project.
Siberian Larch.
New phone system for my office. Hmmm, do i try and fit myself. Soooo many wires.
Hope 35mm stem.
Stuff from on one sale
Freshly serviced Pikes from J-Tech 🙂
Alpkit Muon head torch as a spare for Equinox24 weekend after next. Waiting on another delivery for a copy of The Lore of Running after stupidly entering Country to Capital after a few too many single malts t'other night.
Ortofon 2m red cartridge for my turntable. Get the joys of fitting that later...
Despite arriving at the delivery depot at 3am TNT are not sure where my bike is, or why it's not out for delivery
New Garmin HR strap, ordered at 7pm last night on Amazon Prime arrived 11am today.
Mail order bride from the adverts on here.
Just one question - are they always self assembly, this one seems to be leaking red stuff and I don't seem to have been sent an allen key.
Nothing personally, I think I signed for a pile of computers earlier in work but the techie's whisked them away.
I'm waiting for an oval narrow/wide from CRC, bit of a stab in the dark for me, but I thought I'd give it a go - I didn't pay CRC for faster delivery so this side of Xmas would be nice.
180 night time nappies... 😕
Endura Mullet shades yesterday.
Madison Alpine shorts tomorrow (hopefully).
1Kg of southernfried chicken powder from Curry Frenzy.
Tea sorted.
180 night time nappies
Would it not be cheaper in the long term for you to just use a commode?
@Frank - but the hassle...
A shiney new 27" IPS monitor... it's so big! (compared to my old 22..)
Annoying after giving me today date as an expected delivery date on ordering, my new garage racking won't be here until tomorrow
New Ultegra cranks in 165mm length following the wife's bike fit session on Tuesday. Shiny carbon Rival ones in 172.5 to go on classifieds when I swap them over in the hope of clawing some of the cost back. (Also had to have new bars & stem plus new bar tape...)
A rather nice short sleeved road jersey from Torm. Thought I'd give them a go having read about them on here I think.
Also a couple of carbon brushes for a washing machine motor came via DPD this morning. Fitted them over lunch. An absolute bugger of a fiddly job.
Repaired Delonghi bean to cup machine. Scored off rich relative who couldn't be bother to find out what was wrong with it. New LCD panel and descale and we're up to our necks dark lovely stuff.
Despite arriving at the delivery depot at 3am TNT are not sure where my bike is, or why it's not out for delivery
idiots
despite being on the drivers van, and him driving it round all day, it hadn't been scanned on so wasn't in his delivery log, so didn't attempt to deliver when in the area, so now its off back to the depot, i can collect it between 7 and 8pm, or have it redelivered before 10am tomorrow
idiots
Dual action polisher, various pads and polishers to make my life easier.
We had a Stumpjumper come last week, along with some tyres and a digital shock pump. Then a helmet and front brake.
So far this week it was some Pikes yesterday and LED bulbs today.
Currently waiting for:
- 29er Bontrager Mustang front wheel for £23 off eBay
- some cheap long-pull brake levers + hoods
- £13 of eBay's finest 160mm front disc and cable caliper package - I'm sure they'll be great 😆
These items will largely complete my bastardised Inbred CX 69er drop bar hipster bike, that's if any of it actually fits together of course.
Yorkshire dales cycleway map and a chapeau road shirt from their sale, xl exchanged for a l 😳
silly post of showing off oooo look what I got blah blah
I actually quite like these threads. Get quite a variety of stuff.
Works Components 32 tooth chain ring to replace the oval one that i'm not getting on with...
A really quite knackered looking Di2 long cage mech for my touring bike (wasn't mentioned in the ad, grr)
20 Evomatic door catches for my camper van build and 4 sheets of 10x6 PVC board for lining the shower.
A bunch of Rapha gear from the sale and some time xc8 pedals.
I was expecting some more bits for the latest bike build, but what actually turned up were some very cheap troy lee shorts I bought off sports pursuit quite some time ago. They are whiter than Richard Hammond's teeth. I am going to cut quite the rug when I don these bad boys!
Howies Dagon gilet from the sale. Very fetching!
Incorrect (too wide) sized dropper seatpost. 👿
Arcteryx beta sl belay jacket for the winter.
Glorious!
A set of the Kane Chronicles books for LittleMissMC.
Tuesday they brought a stem and carbon handlebars. Also for LittleMissMC.
2 x 1000 litres of glycol mix
2 x 11kw gas boosters
Lets see what tomorrow brings
Ear plugs
A rather lovely Open One+ frame from the kind folk at Open...
Two 14kg bags of Dog Food.
A set of Renthal Fatbars.
Eventually.
Yesterday - Endura Mullet shades - wore today - like.
Today - earlier than expected - Madison Alpine FR shorts - love em (wore in house to check size). Happy!
12 smal My Little Pony figures. Or as i call them.. JnrOath's bribes.
Nothing! Today's delivery should have been two front shockers for my van and 1200kg of slate tales. Tomorrow's another day!
Confirmation of my entry into the Manchester 100 on Sunday.
And a pair of Bliss Minimalist knee pads. (Which I won't be wearing on Sunday)
A rather lovely Open One+ frame from the kind folk at Open...
Ooooh 🙂
Yesterday I got a Magic Mary that won't inflate tubeless. And a Samsung S7 and then realised I got my contract end date wrong by two months which means I can't get a PAC code for another 4 weeks without incurring a hefty early cancellation charge. Balls.
Hopefully today I'll get some Ultegra QRs for the roadie so that my disc brakes don't kill me to death. And some blue 2 degree float SPD cleats to wreck my knees that much quicker.
A child's Army uniform, which duly arrived sending the youngest into a frenzy.
And hopefully passports, for the Wife & kids so we can book a holiday.
Nothing because Edinburgh Cycles and Wiggle have both let me down with slow/non-existent dispatch 🙁
Fingers crossed that Amazon do deliver though as I am looking forward to receiving my new Fitbit Blaze.
Just has 6 chainrings delivered from Superstar. Some more Rapha stuff and a new Spyderco pingo.
I'm waiting on a catflap for the mog. He's been bullying the gf as she won't let him out when we are going out outselfs.
Oh, and a whyte t129 frame!
2 seater, black leather sofa.
Less excited than the Raceface Sixc handlebars that are due on Monday. 50 quid!
A set of kitchen knives plus wooden block...even though I'd spent most of last Thursday getting the order cancelled.
Which just reinforces the opinion that they were a shower of sht after all 👿
A very big box with my wife's name on it and for me, a pair of those Giro shoes as mentioned here earlier. What's wanted are the brake pads for my Land Rover so it can go for its MOT.
One components chainguide from CRC.
Nothing, because even though I ticked the box on the DPD website to ask for it to be delivered to my neighbour (who is definitely in all day) I've just had an email saying they couldn't deliver it and are taking it to their nearest collection shop. Which for me is a 30 mile round trip. ****s.
2 more shiny corny kegs for my beer.
A Netgear GS105E managed switch for me to use in pen-testing and a pair of leather gymnastic grips so that I can try and _not_ remove most of my hands when I do a lot of pull ups.
And some coffee.
Dpd brought me a parcel yesterday opened it and found an samsung galaxy s6 from BT ,turns out its a scam ,phoned BT ,police etc just waiting for return envelope ,today someone turned up trying to collect it cheeky ****ers
Middleburn bits from SJS
Haflinger baffies
Ordered pre price hike, I might add. Middleburn rings, I mean. Just seen the latest posts on the Bike Forum. Only ever bought my Middleburn bits from them, and won't be inclined to browse for anything else going forward.
A sandblaster.
(The compressor should turn up tomorrow.)
My new mudguards for my commuter bike came from Wiggle today.
I'm so excited. Can you tell?
2 x 750ml TorQ bottles
2 x floro orange cages from Merlin
They more or less match the colourway of my new Propel . I am so becoming a roadie it scares me
A set of small Torx bits.
An A3 wooden frame to add to the picture collection in the 'cycling shrine toilet'.
The Divine Comedy's new album on vinyl.
An Airshot tubeless inflator thingy.
Mares scuba mask and snorkel. Going back as too small, apparently I have a large cranium. Wen to Manchester and bought a Hollis instead.
Also received a prototype product from the US that I had some technical input into! Unfortunately the finished article is very ummm functional looking!
15 interior doors and handles.
A lot of this suff is boring, but I would be much more entertained if there were pictures.

HTH beefheart 😉
Some black Superstar Nano pedals, to replace the knackered red ones
I can't believe nobody commented on steve_b77's picture. That's a slice of air I'd be proud of! Mega.
