Having said I wasn't going to buy any, some gaiters from the outdoorkit.co.uk sale.
Lets see if they solve my problem or rain running off my overtrousers into my boots.

Lovely, lovely, lovely.
Re: The post man's been ...
Ian, you've got to show pics or we'll have to assume its a scale model.
If it's real I hope we get to see it in the flesh

I'd keep those straps on the outside, so I'd say you were correct.ctznsmith wrote:Hah! They're both the same shape, but yes logically the logos would go on the outside of the leg.johnnystorm wrote:*Cough*

Ha Ian, yes, must read the small print!
I just thought you might have worked out why we have 2 kidneys - one to clean up, the other to trade for man toys.

Fox Launch Pro knee and elbow pads ready for my Alps trip this summer. Bit overkill for bikepacking though!

Not the postman but Keep Pedalling saw me coming today and sold me this from Wildcat our favourite bike backing company
The problem is the frame and fork are still 2 or 3 weeks away so all I have to show for it is is and a bit of an imagination
Dam you Shona

A set of On-One Mary handlebars and an On-One seatpost.
Got the bars as an experiment - a bit cheaper than the Jones H-bars, only £20 - to see if they suit me for longer less technical rides. Got the seatpost as my Reverb is back with Fisher being repaired and it's useful to have a spare.

A lightweight quilt courtesy of Richpips. I'll have to weigh it against my Ukhammocks summer quilt for a comparison but seems a good couple of hundred grammes lighter. Wonder if it'll be as warm / warm enough.
Interesting design without a neck clip / draw cord. A mistake IMO as this is really handy on other quilts to reduce warm air loss. Will see how it works in a bivi.

Cheap stuff from PlanetX sales bin arrived...Mombassa "Bicycle Tour" longsleeve, angora beanie and a fresh cap for a little over a tenner. Pretty happy about that. Have long been a fan of Reg Mombassa's artwork (those of you familiar with Mambo will recognise his whacked out works).
