Hi,

I've got a good friend who I may have indavertantly made hate me, and to get back in her good books I was thinking of getting her some kind of small bike related trinket as an apology.

Anyone got any ideas, small budget, i.e less than a fiver would be preferable.
Just something quirky and fun, like the gold campag or carbon bottle cages but on a smaller scale.

Ta!

I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost;
Than never to have loved at all."

    A puncture repair kit, along with a note saying "I hope we can patch things up, sorry."

    How about a little note with the words.



    GET OVER IT.

    Written inside?

    You can't buy friendship, forget about her and move one

    Perfect!
    Also that opens up all kinds of pumping innuendo. Hooray!

    Seriously tho, just no. I want to get her something small, to assuage the anger.
    I want it to make her smile. :)

    Am tempted by the "GET OVER IT" note however.

    kill 2 birds with the one stone here is a gift and said note in one HERE although not exactly shiny.

    Thats actually perfect.
    I've got one ordered and on the way. She'll love the brilliant irony of the statement.

    Or hate me more and I give up.
    Either way tis a winner!
