What bike stuff did Santa leave you?
No bike or bike gear but my son got me this, which, unlike my bikes, will be used every day.

These, in blue and red. How festive for the Christmas Day ride.

I have Yet to buy it *, tonight I visit Friends that are gathered together at the home of someone who is a great Cook .
No children Never Married so I dont even decorate.
* order in for one of these Quill Extender Tubes seen here .. Harris Cyclery Handlebar Stems
[TABLE]
[TR]
[TD]SM249[/TD]
[TD]1.0" (25.4 mm)[/TD]
[TD]fits oversized forks with 1-1/8" threaded headsets.[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
for the Purpose of making a different steering Mast system for my Bike Friday .. Pocket Llama
replacing the Quick fold One I Never Use, allowing a Click Fix rack or basket to be added..
a straight tube will go over the stem raiser Tube, then a Quill to threadless adapter Plug, will go On Top.

Bike stuff?? I was supposed to get bike stuff? I (we) got a new MacBook Pro to replace my 7 year old MBP. And a new printer.
I got a new bike 3 months ago.
[EDIT] I got a new bike repair stand last week. [/EDIT]

A new pair of Pearl Izumi Attack shorts, a new pair of Nashbar mesh back gloves, and a Nashbar Tempo wireless computer,
I'm going to break down and join the electronic gizmo crowd.

Pearl Izumi thermal gloves, neoprene shoe covers, 2-bike trunk mount rack, and electric tire pump. The rack is amusing since I've driven to only one ride ever, but maybe now I will.

A black Selle Anatomica X, I really wanted one to see if it is at least as nice as my Brooks B17.

Pearl Izumi Pro thermal three-quarters bib tights. Fine piece of kit. There's something about knickers that I really like--keep my knees warm and versatile over a wide range of temps. Merry Christmas.

No bike stuff. But then, I have two bikes I only dreamed of having. It's been a fantastic year for me.

No bike stuff but that is because I treated myself to new bike when I turned the big 5-0 in October. With two kids time is more precious than things nowadays.

The kids got me a Misfit Flash fitness plus sleep monitor. It can be used for swimming, cycling, running and sleep. Our two daughters each have one and are tracking their steps.
Being one who is parked in front of a computer most of the work day, it may help me get up and do some more walking during the day.

Specialized winter cycling shoes (SPD), A HRM and Speed/Cadence sensor--of course, I got these ahead of time, but the better half authorized the purchases as my Christmas Gifts.
