Your MTB Christmas List AKA Things you want for Christmas

For Me, so far I have:
Pedal Baskets (To get me used to clipless pedals first I'll try these for a season) also known as pedal clips

Cateye Enduro 8 Offroad computer

That's about it for now. I'm still looking though!

Mael, don't be a Scrooge! I want a Hardrock ss. What I really want is the rootbeer Bullit at my LBS but my wife says that is too much. The owner has a H-rock SS with one sk8park session on it for cheap so I hope a new bike for me.

Not a scrooge, just realistic. The only biking things I ask for are clothes (I need shorts) and movies and I think I asked for decline magazine...

My fam isn't doing so hot either. I told them not to vote Bush, but hey. To be completely cheesy, after some deaths close to us, I really just want to be with them, I couldn't care less about bike parts.

Yeah I didn't even ask for anything this year. My parents are helping me out with a trip to Australia through school, so I figure that far more than enough.

Let's see some metric Allen wrenches w/ ball tips, a set of metric gear wrenches, a Platform Damping upgrade from Push Industries
A new repair stand, a truing stand, and what I really want for X-mas a nice quiet night alone with my girlfriend.

I like Raiyn's list, excluding the nice quiet night thingy. I have my own girlfriend!

Add to that my warranty/crash replacement for my Intense frame. I'm pretty good.

I need just a few more parts to build up that K2 frame that' been sitting in my garage.

When I do get my new Intense, I'm sure I'll need some parts for it. New stem, new handlebars and a new Sram Drivetrain would be o.k.

I like the new Diabolous cranks.

I need a new pair of shoes for my CX bike.

I can always use some new gear!
