Just curious. If someone wanted to get you something for Christmas and they had a $100 budget, what would you tell them you wanted?
I always like getting tools. I would like to get a headset press. I would like to get a new stand (although well beyond the $100 limit). I wouldn't mind getting a headset remover.
As far as the bike, I don't really need anything new. Maybe a new set of tires. I can always use those!
Misc gear. I could use a new mini-tool and a new wedge. Since I've started road cycling, I'm constantly moving my mini-tool from my Camelback to my wedge. P.I.T.A.. I could also go for a new lighting system, like the NiteRider NiMH with the H.I.D. light!(oops more than $100 again!)
Oh yeah, I'm using my mtb pedals on my road bike as well. I'd like a new set of shoes or some new pedals.(about $100 each).
What else? I'd like to get a University of Florida Team Jersey or any other jersey. Or a new Giro E2 Helmet. Or a pair of Pearl Izumi Microsensor Shorts. I lost my Smith Buzzsaw sunglasses on my last trip to NC, so I wouldn't mind a replacement set. I could use a cycling specific rain jacket or even a fleece vest for cooler mornings. Even some arm warmers. I can always use a new T-shirt or sweatshirt as well.
Wow, when I started this thread, I though, "I really don't want anything". After reading my list I realized there is always something cycling related I could use. I wonder why my wife thinks I so hard to shop for? ........Hmmmm
If anyone knows my wife, you could forward this on to her. ......PLEASE!:thumbup:
