Today we bought:
-
Three new tyres for the mountain bikes — much needed.
Two 1.25” Tioga Cityslickers and a 1.5” IRC Metro. The 1.5" Cityslicker comes off the rear-wheel-from-hell on my bike and goes on the front of Joey’s bike. The IRC Metro goes on the rear of Joey’s bike, then the two Tiogas go onto my bike… simple! It would have been much simpler if we’d had the track pump that’s on the shopping list…
-
A bike computer for Norky bike — late Christmas present from Joey to me. Here’s hoping that a new Sigma 800 will end my run of bad luck with bike computers! Their website is presented solely in Macromedia flash, so don’t bother attempting to view it from any browser that hasn’t got a Flash plugin.
-
an assortment of vegetables — because Saturday is market day.
-
clothes for Joey
-
a new pair of comfy shoes for me
-
oh, and a three-seater couch and two armchairs!
There was a very tempting looking tandem in Christies – 10% off since it’s last year’s model. Matt black Cannondale MT800, looking like something a SWAT team would ride. Can we really afford to buy such a shiny new toy?
