how to stop buying? is it just the season change or what? I suddenly find I need all these extra bits and pieces that are adding up to hundreds of pounds. I spent another £50 today on gels, a new saddle bag and some toe covers. Tomorrow I'm thinking of buying some knee warmers for the Etape caledonia as it looks like it's going to be chilly and I don't already have them.
Help meeeeeeeeeee!

Hmmmm, even though I'm off the bike at the moment. In the past three weeks I've bought -
Rapha Jersey
Assos Shorts
Vittoria Tyres
Stella Azzura bar tape, the last two to pimp up my dull winter/training bike.
Oh, and a Litespeed frame.
One thing I've learnt in the last 12 months is that you're only here once and that you can go at any time.
You spend away Karen

bought a rapha cap last week (sneaked out at 6.30 am with it on so went undiscovered until I returned - comments were made)guilliano wrote:Have you got a windproof cap to wear under your helmet for Etape???0 -
What about new cleats? Last thing you want in insecure feet on a long ride like that
Arm warmers? Base layer? Buff? Tri bag to make getting to your gels/bars easier? One of those camelback base layers may be worth investing in..... keep nice clean lines on your bike with no bottle cages ruining the image.....
I'm not helping am i?0 -
Karen, you could combine two purchases, Rapha are doing their italian jersey with kneewarmers as a package...0
