    @ iain_j - looks slightly like a micro casette lockring removal tool. Somekind of weird cycling jewellery?.

    Anyway, I've bought a Castelli Destino Long Sleeve Jersey in red, from wiggle (on offer) and finally bought a mini pump, mostly to get above £50 on wiggle.

    And now, I have wiggle kindly reminding me how much money I've thrown their way, as I now am a gold customer. Joys.

    Yes I bought ten of them, one for each finger. £17 each but that's the cost of bling hey.

    Actually it's one of these.

    Well, I feel a little outclassed by the other bikes that people are buying, but I've just ordered one of these:

    Fortunately in real life the shoes are larger than the pedals......

    And some degreaser that nice man in the LBS gave me to stop me buying things online. Either that or to get rid of me - they all sigh whenever I walk in that shop now.....
