A Miche front track hub
A pair of Open Pro 32h rims

Or are we dreaming?
OK I'll take a pair of Phil Wood Track hubs, a green Brooks Swift, A Miche Supertype seatpost, A 170mm campy Pista crank, Campy track pedals, and a BIG box of bike tools.
Still not all that exotic, but simple pleasures ya know.

OH, and my freind whos in japan right now just bought me some Kashimax Dual Sprint straps. They were on sale because its the off season. Amusingly enough though the guy had a hard time figuring out that shes not a racer, and neither am I. He eventually decided that I must be an American Keirin racer, cuz noone else buys double toe straps.

I couldn't get what I really wanted from my Fiance. Everyshop in Texas is unable to get Black non-machined deep v's from velocity right now. They are out of stock they say. Apparently they have been "wildly" populare according to Velocity. Imagine that. They still have "Party" colors in stock. (velocity's words, not mine.)

An SRAM PC99 chain for me- I was hoping for hollow-pin but I donīt want to get greedy- maybe a torque wrench may also be on the list if santa is feeling generous
I am perfectly happy. Don't really need anything.
Maybe some kucharik wool undershirts, but that's about it.

My girl's buying me the B125s i've been eyeing. It was that or a tattoo and we both decided it would be more difficult to swap out a forearm should the relationship not work out.

My parents are into buying me art for Christmas now that I'm an adult (23).
This started last year with two vintage maps, 1 of United States in 18-something and one of the world around the same time (I don't remember the exact dates of them).
I'm a history nerd and I love them.
Anyway.
This year I think they got me a vintage cycling poster, as that's what I asked for and a giant wooden crate/box is sitting in their front room.
I'll post a pic when I open it.

I'm about as anti-religion as they come, but I always love Christmas time.
It's become so secularized (thank you liberal war on christmas, ha) that you can freely enjoy the snow and decoarations and just hanging out all day and eatting.
I sound like a sap.
But I compare snow and winter at the last half of December to that of february and march and there's no comparison. Festive and colorful vs. cold and dreary.
I like Christmas time.
I'm at work and still drunk, I think.

A nice new/old frame which I can slowly build up over the cold dark winter!!!
Realistically... IRO wheelset and park work stand... that's more than enough to make me happy though... plus you never know how generous the grandfolks are feeling :-)... mabye a frame is in the works
