  • Not much for me this year, although I'm not the easiest to buy for. I got a book on Wiggo and I treated myself to a Lezyne Power Drive front light.. and a bean to cup coffee machine ;)
    Still trying to convince the missus of the n+1 rule...!

    This year more running than cycling-related stuff. my cycling-mojo has evaporated a bit over the past 12 months or so and I've been running 2 or 3 times a week although I'm now actually cycle-commuting at least as often as before.
    Ortlieb large saddle bag - ideal size for my commuting kit which means I can dump the small rucksac I carried and lose the sweaty back, hopefully also reducing the back pain I've been getting.
    David Byrne Bicycle Diaries.
    Back copy of Roleur - I've bought one or 2 copies of Roleur in the past so this is something to sit down with when I get a quiet hour or 2 (so I might get to read it in 2013, maybe 2014)

    Couple running books - think one was Born to Run.
    Nice comfy running socks (pack 2 x pairs)
    Compression shorts (slightly too loose to compress my weedy thigs much but as they were cheap, so I'm told, I'll wear them under the running shorts on cool days. Long sleeve wicking top (for running but obviously ok for cycling too)
  • I only got a mug with a bike on it :(
    So I bought myself a capo ltd softshell jacket from the states, hopefully it's as good as the reviews suggest but for £50 delivered I can't complain too much. Also bought a mavic helium jacket from ribble due to all the horrendous weather we've been having.
    Just trying to find myself a kask mojito for cheap enough and I'll be sorted (for this month anyway)
