    I did this last year and it went down well so thought I would make an early start as I am struggling to pin point one.

    What was your best cycling related purchase this year?

    It can be a bike, parts, tools, books, clothing/kit, event tickets, etc.

    Nice one Keith.

    I guess I have to say my Tarmac – a great bike and amazing VFM.

    In terms of little bits of kit though….hhhmmmm……the Wellgo Mg1 pedals in orange for my HT but that isn’t road based so for the road stuff I would say it’s between:

    1) Cyclist mag – really enjoying the 2 issues I have had so taken out the 3 for a fiver sub. (again if anyone has issue 1 or 2 that they are chucking out please let me know as I will send an SAE for it)

    or

    2) Garmin Edge 200 – good price, looks cool and so much easier to swap between bikes/set up than ‘normal’ bike computers.

    The obvious one would be a very lovely Dedacciai frame and fork at 54% RRP but on a more prosaic level I finally (nearly) completed my workshop with the tools I’ve been missing, borrowing or bodging around: pedal spanner, chainwhip + cassette socket, BB wrench. Just the truing stand next..
