roxii 7,204 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 So this year looks like we are “that family”. The tree is up the lights are plugged in and I’ve made my first fruitcake. So now thoughts turn to shopping. Whats the triathlon “must have” that’s on this years Christmas list? Link to post Share on other sites

bert40 49 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Some new Asics GT2000's, a pair of Saucony A8's, new head stem (left Santa with the eBay item number) to replace the one I broke overtightening the bolts and some cash for tyres. I have a birthday in Dec as well so cover both bases. A 2005 wetsuit, I'm still in my sleeveless Wavelength one from '92 and an IM brand one from '98(?). One day I might upgrade to a 21st century one. I'm a bit retro here, my bikes are '91 and '96 models with 440's and a 950 disc. One with 9spd and the other 10spd. MTB is modern, a 2015 version. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

xblane 261 Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Wheels! Although, that is a combination birthday and Christmas. Expensive things when you race once or twice a year and spend the rest of the time on your trainer. Link to post Share on other sites
trifun 446 Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Fenix 6x sapphire for me (courtesy of the big online sale at rebel the other day & selling the 5x on gumtree) & a nice CF hood scoop for the car (bolt in straight replacement for the plastic factory one - the carbon fetish continues). Now what to get the wife, 4 kids (plus their two girlfriends and one wife), my mum and my three nephews.... Lucky my last paycheck from my 2nd job comes this Thursday (prob get the same contract again semester 2 next year - so a long wait for fresh pocket money). We'd get a tree but my daughter's cats would take it out..... Link to post Share on other sites
