    dhb long sleeve, zip neck base layer from Wiggle. £12.50 delivered, and the medium fits me perfectly. I reckon you can get 18 months regular riding/washing before the stink just won't go. I buy 3 at a time. Brilliant.[/url]

    Bought a set of 140mm Vanilla's from here for £130 recently. Not sure which bike they'll end up on long term yet, but I'm currently enjoying them a lot fitted to my old Soul.

    Also bought a pair of the cheapo Lidl glasses. Pretty good and the even don't seem too prone to misting, unlike most cheap riding glasses I've tried.

    I dunno about anyone else but if I bought anything new recently (which I haven't) it would be too soon to be able to say whether it was good value or not. 😕

    I use Bolle BL10s, great. They do scratch easily though but otherwise perfect, and they cost peanuts.

    I guess mine would be my ex-display, never ridden Hemlock for £540. Though that wasn't all that recent.

    Got to be the immaculate, barely used Specialized Globe San Francisco that I bought off here for £100 a couple of weeks ago. Looks great, lots of fun to ride to work, and the same price as the last set of tyres that I bought for my Soda. As long as I resist the temptation to pimp it too much, it should remain a bargain.

    Raleigh fixie – all bits given to me so the bike hasn't cost me a penny. I might need to buy some brake blocks if the 36 miles return commute is to take place, hmmm..
