A tapered dry bag from the Wildcat sale lighter than my alpkit one so a few more grams saved.

Arcteryx Alpha FL jacket, that’s me Xmas money spent

Some permavent, a spare derailleur hanger, some brake pads and some military surplus gortex trousers to make into shorts. Almost as if I'm expecting a long, wet ride soon...

Damn it! I paid £17! Look like they've never been worn though.

New Open U.P. frameset from Velo Atelier; by far the best bike fit assessment I have had.

Highly recommended.

15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24 spanners to fill some gaps and mislaid ones. I need the 18 and 20 to remove the labyrinth oil seal.

300 x 7" record protection sleeves.

Shimano Saint MX80 flat pedals since my existing ones' bearings have given up the ghost just in time for T'Cafe Racer and both at the same time for some wierd reason.

a vaude lizard tent. from a mate. only used twice. set it up in the living room today and i fit inside it with room to spare top and bottom.

Be interested hear how you get on with it Ton in the field (or wood, or moor, or footie pitch, or...). My lad had/has one and it isn't easy to keep the fly off the inner. Very roomy and light but adjustment is very fiddly and diff to get right. Maybe we had a Friday Afternoon One....

i will let you know how it goes mate.

i had a vaude taurus a few years ago, that was a good tent, just a bit hefty.

My Vaude Hogan is the best tent ever. Still going strong 25 years after I bought it.

Some gore Tex socks from here, and a selection of lomo dry bags were waiting for me when we got back from holiday today - all look excellent... now to try to make a bar harness...

I'll see your Exposure and raise you a Lumicycle Explorer, which I'm just waiting for with UPS today.

In other news, just got some new brakepads from LBS - £17/pair which is a bit mental for a couple of bits of metal that are meant to wear away. I know you can get ones for £3/pair but I'd like to be able to stop before I hit something.

A pair of chunky wheels turned up for the Jones so I can try a 29+ set up on the front. Tyre not here yet though :(

Not the postie but have just collected an Expisure joystick from my local to work Evans branch.

Chronical turned up, not tubeless as promised but it'll do. Will try set up tubeless tomorrow

a delivery from Alpkit, Quechua and Enlightened.

What have you got from Enlightened Tony?

Something to 'brighten up' my frame bag

Nice badges! Where did you get those? I'd like a "What would Elvis do?" one
