    2 really boring but warm (and quite cheap at £8 each) thermal base layers from sports direct. They arrived this morning having only ordered them at nearly midnight on Friday. They came with a free mug which is easily big enough to fit most of a cafetiere of coffee in. It's not haribo but it's free :D
  • Picked up a new deore middle ring today. But pretty annoyed when i got home and realised it wasn't a deore that was on there before. Just added 41grams to the weight of an already heavy bike, damn

    ah well, just need to take a dump before i head out on the bike now.

    Either you got the last one, or you may find an email saying "Item Discontinued" as that's what it says now. And I've never known CRC to update their website that fast!

    That picture makes it look like the sort of spotlight they used to trace planes in WW2! :lol:

    Yet another 4-pack of superstar kevlar pads, and a 10mm bolt-through quick release for my monstro-wheels.

    Oh and something from CRC last night apparently but I can't remember what, and I'm not going to look it up- it'll spoil the surprise. i hope it's good.

    A Mud X. And a load of little stainless steel rivets which I'm going to use to either turn an old tyre into an awesome lashed-up ice tyre, or a completely useless waste of time and effort.

    It's not him who's bought it though, it's me. I KNOW you'll miss me, because I'm rad and sick and stuff.

    Still not a very nice thing to say though fromage.

    It was only in jest, I had had a few you see and my 'sheepsteeth-esque' drunken humour sometimes goes down like a lead-balloon..
