Christmas Wishlist for a Cyclist





I Ride the Bicycle Electric

Originally uploaded by _mpd_

Having to get presents at Christmas is a pain, how to find the time to get something more meaningful that just a gift voucher? If you have a mate (or relative) who cycles then your in luck because buying for cyclists is easy. Here are my top 5 recommendations of what to buy a cyclist for Christmas:

1) Cycling Gloves - damn it gets cold this time of year in London so why not splash out on some cycle gloves such as these ones. That’s not the only thing they do but they also act as shock absorbers which is useful when you don’t spot that pothole in the road because its filled with rain water! Spend around: £15

2) Computer - bit more expensive but pretty damn cool - especially if its wireless!
Spend around: £35

3) Cycle Jacket - I splashed out on this one which keeps you warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot. I don’t know how but it works! Spend around: £70

4) If you are buying for someone that has just started cycling then buy them an ultimate guide to bicycles. This will help them keep their bike in top condition and make it last. Spend around: £10

5) Bicycle lights - there’s far too many to choose from so head on over to amazon.co.uk or ebay or wherever you like to shop and pick some up. Spend around: £15-£20

Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
