    I’ve started visiting wiggle, CRC and ribble far too often the past few weeks. I know from experience this is a clear sign I’m going to buy something I don’t need. I’ve accepted this as an inevitability if history has taught me anything it is that I buy a load of sh*t I don’t need from online bike shops.

    Anyway getting to the point has anyone bought or seen anything particularly cool lately

    Altura seat pack. They do a few sizes but the thing I like is that when you’re not using it there’s f’all on the seatpost. Mine’s an ‘Arran’ which has a little carrying handle so you can sashay around town like a twat when you take it off.

    Basically to save you the bother of clicking on the linky, these are wide, shallow drop bars intended for off road use. They seem pretty good on road to me

    I have recently acquired the new book about Reg Harris.
    I did not buy it as it was sent to me by the author; Robert Dineen for giving a little help in his research.
    How cool/smug is that?
    It’s a cracking warts-and-all read and I would advise everyone to buy their own copy. There are various offers from Waterstones and Amazon. It also comes in Kindle format. Enjoy. B-)

    Easton EC90 Aero carbon clinchers… Mind has been blown. Fast, stiff, lightweight… ride better than my Reynolds tubulars by a considerable margin. Extremely happy! B-)

    I didn’t buy it recently, but last Sunday I got first proper chance to use my Rapha Rain Jacket (bought in the sample sale for £50, before anyone crows about it) as opposed to my lighter weight pak-a-jak. Awesome piece of kit.
