Some new pedals, as the retaining part on the float adjustment had dropped off, meaning I couldn't clip in on one side. Plus a couple of new tyres and a set of mudguards.

Not bought, but got given 4 buff-a-likes for me and the Cubs and Dearly_Beloved to shared between us. But I might adopt them all

Postie just arrived with a Parks Tools 'the Big Blue Book', a spare gear cable to go in my saddlebag and a summer weight buff

I am going to read up on further fettling skillz.

I do not need new wheels for the MTB…. I do not need new wheels for the MTB…. I do not need new wheels for the MTB…..

I never ride it (only once since Christmas) and thus, new wheels would be pointless. And I have my cars MOT coming up….

No, I do not need new wheels for the MTB…..

Yes, just ordered them. Well, they were half price…. Who needs a car???

Today, these inexpensive panniers arrived - they're a birthday present from my wife Claire so I'll have to wait a couple of weeks before I get my grubby hands on them. Seeing as they were so cheap, I persuaded Claire also to get me the matching handlebar bag (all in red).

A new jacket after my old one disintegrated in the wash Some inner tubes because i realised i don't have any spares for my 29er the spare i had was too narrow and come cone spanners.

Yesterday we went to Manchester were I took the opportunity to visit the Harry Hall cycle emporium where I bought mudguards ,a bottle cage and a brake cable .I also drooled over some very nice bikes.

What jacket did you get, I am after a recumbent friendly one that keeps you dry even though there is a small lake on the tum.

They look brilliant! Please let us know what the quality etc is like, I might grab some myself

Yee Ha!

Wiggle have just announced that my Oval Stem has been despatched. It's quite a rare beast (not in their 2011 catalogue) suggested by Biggsy.

Well done to both!

My glue gun arrived from a fleabay seller today with a whole bunch of glue sticks. This might be overkill just to fill my cleat bolts

Now what else can I glue together ...

Greenbank · « **Reply #841 on:** 08 March, 2011, 05:03:21 pm »

Hope Hed Doctor (in red, who cares if it doesn't match), plus a set of headset spacers.

Clandy · « **Reply #842 on:** 08 March, 2011, 06:25:52 pm »

Ordered a nice Livestrong top.

CrinklyLion · « **Reply #843 on:** 08 March, 2011, 06:43:22 pm »

Well, I actually got it yesterday.... but I now own one of these.

I find this slightly odd.

I've made a note in my diary to remember to do that - I won't get them until 25th. By all means remind me if I forget.

Thanks for the tip - I just bought a pair of Karrimor shoes and a Craghoppers fleece from M&M.

Today I also heard my new wheel with SA 3-speed hub has been despatched from SJSC. At last after a lot of faffy fettling I should hopefully get my Pashley back on the road tomorrow.

I got my new Alpkit headtorch from the PO this morning.
It's not purely a cycling bit of kit but that's mostly when I'll be wearing it.
First impressions are favourable.
My previous, cheap Ebay headtorch came off worse during a coming together with a "not quite open" garage door.

clifftaylor · « **Reply #847 on:** 09 March, 2011, 05:30:12 pm »

A Hope hed doctor expander bung thingy, with a nice red top cap. It's very well made, but I have sent them an email suggesting that instructions would be a good idea - there are plenty of people around who think the these devices hold something in place.

LittleWheelsandBig · « **Reply #848 on:** 10 March, 2011, 05:39:05 pm »

Spokes for HK's MTB front wheel, some pedals and a couple of meaningless but interesting things.

Feline · « **Reply #849 on:** 10 March, 2011, 06:22:07 pm »

3 more spare tubes and 3 pairs of Kool Stop salmon brake pads. 4 of these are to go straight onto the Sabbath then 2 will be spares.
