    1 Cloth cap ,keeps the sun and sweat out my eyes . Very usefull for winter days when the sun is low in the sky.
    2 My winter drink mix . One third aldis smoothie, two thirds water ,with half a teaspoon of ginger paste ,and just a small pinch of chilli paste Gives it just a little bite ... Lovely .
    3 The garden fleece i use to cover my bikes in the dirty garden shed ,keeping them nice and shinny .
    ENJOY the winter sun and keep riding !

    The singular most important thing for me would be a track pump.

    I'd ride any bike, any tyres, wearing any clothes but I would give up cycling before I would use a hand pump once or twice a week.
