So, what did Santa bring?

[Matthew]

Great gifts I got from my wife: Zinn maintenance book, two issues of 'Cyclist' magazine, an issue of Mountain Bike Action, and a sports watch. And best of all a few weeks back the "Ok" to pick up a new to me dream MTB frame, a Moots Rigormootis!! A great Christmas for me overall. So how about my fellow Paceliners. What did you get??

[drsmile]

Bought myself a Lynskey X-mas frame last month, and the GF got me a Fenix BC30 light I have been eying for a while. The only thing I didn't get that I asked for was decent cycling weather!

[Keith A]

Something simple this year, some long fingered gloves.

[rbtmcardle]

too many extra pounds

but i am picking up a legend tomorrow, with silver campy bits :banana:

[FlashUNC]

One Rouleur mug of a certain Italian rider. Already getting some use out of it.

My brother in law got me the Bike Snob book
My wife's awesome! She got me:
A Twin Six Jersey,
A pair of running shoes,
A VIRB Elite, and
A MacBook Air (totally surprised me with this, as I've been using a crappy windows netbook for years now). It's my first Apple computer, and I love it!

[vqdriver]

Got a geekhouse on the way. Wasn't going to be a Christmas thing but I guess it counts.

[yashcha]

American Giant heavy weight sweatshirt and a Bialetti espresso maker.

The American Giant hoody is nicer than any hoody I have ever owned.

[Dromen]

....Colnago CLD. Keep upgrading her bikes hoping she will ride more. Hasn't worked yet.....

[oldpotatoe]

He could have been a movie star-a star he was.

[Cicli]

That's a strange kit. Must be a mountain biker.

Anyway, I got a new helmet and a couple of gift cards for indoor skydiving.

[parris]

^Eddie Rickenbacker?

My wife always surprises in a good way. She got me a gift card to B&H photo, a Spyder sweater, a Garneau winter jersey,a cool Merckx t-shirt, and a cool three pack of Omigang(sp) beer!

[shovelhd]

A stack of new base layers. Requested and much needed.

[mcteague]

He could have been a movie star-a star he was.

I read a book about him when I was a kid. Pretty amazing life he had. Still have an attraction to Spads, Sopwith Camels, Fokkers, etc.

Very and hat in a ring squadron still exists.

[tbike4]

3T Stylus 0 Team seat post. Dura Ace cassette. Cold weather jersey to match my Supersix Evo. Ecco walking boots. Electric razor.

REI gift certificate and a state parks pass. I'm actually way more excited about the latter.

Santa Carl should have box from Bozeman on my doorstep tomorrow.

[Birddog]

168cm Salomon Enduro XT's; fun skis!

[Bruce K]

I got just two things for the holidays and my wife and son could not have done any better this year.

The cycling related one was a Garmin 810.

BK

[pdonk]

king ti cages and moots socks.

[cdn_bacon]

One issue of Pedal Magazine and a new Santa Fe XL for my wife with snow tires...

Which brings forth many km's on the bike for ME:hello:

[gomango]

Not many bike goodies this year, but I did get a R.L. Winston Boron III TH fly rod for steelhead and muskies.

I feel like I won the lottery, as it's the nicest fly rod I have ever owned.

Can't wait. :)

Received a generous gift card to Competitive Cyclist, which funded a set of Garmin Vector S pedals. Then I bought myself a set of Ksyrium Elite S wheels. So, yeah, it was a pretty good holiday for me.

[MattTuck]

Some wool cycling socks, a pedros vice whip, a chain cleaner and the book Bike Fit: Optimize your bike position (http://www.amazon.com/Bike-Fit-Optimise-performance-avoidance/dp/1408190303)

Though the thing I'm most happy with is probably the pair of hand made whiskey glasses from Simon Pearce (http://www.simonpearce.com/products/ascutney-whiskey), and a bottle of Ardbeg Corryvreckan.

[Red Tornado]

He could have been a movie star-a star he was.

What is the title of the book? Always liked WWI aviation. Those guys truly were daredevils. Rickenbacker seemed like a pretty cool guy from what I've read about him.
That photo looks like it was taken before the SPAD XIII days.

OK, so I'm fat and wear a red hat....

[csm]

I got an ENO hammock tarp. Can't wait to use it.

Nothing bike related this year, but I can be sure to keep warm with these!

Hah, funny thing is that we do stockings secret Santa style. So my SIL got me a nice bottle of Ardbeg that was sticking out of the top. So good

Also, I caved and got myself a Rapha Transfer Gilet with their current sale because I need a heavier vest.

Here-

[soulspinner]

2 cycling books, including the Charlie Wegalius bio, park tool stuff, and a set of snowshoes. My friend also gave me his old trainer now that he has a new state of the art one with a designated big screen. My old magnetic is broken...

[kevinvc]

I got a Cambium C17. I've just done some light riding around town, but I'm liking it so far. I'm definitely looking forward to some longer rides once I get it adjusted correctly. I'm finding I need to tilt the nose slightly up and slide the whole seat forward a bit. Nothing too extreme, but changes I wasn't expecting.

[juanhenry]

I didn't receive much cycling gear.

Madonna di Ghisallo medallion and some Giro OTC wool socks and wool gloves, along with a Heavy Pedal & giro watchman beanie.

[Netdewt]

Feedback Sprint
Wiggle/DHB rain gear
Defeet Kneekers and socks

[Grinta13]

Two Camelbak Podium Chill water bottles and Phil Gaimon's book, Pro Cycling on $10 a Day.

[richspeeds]

A KS LEV dropper seatpost! :)

[Neves]

Haven't ordered it yet but the wife and daughters are getting me a 1up rack. I think our trip to New York this summer finally won her over.
