I got a pair of Specialized MTB winter gloves that were much needed! I only had a pair of lightweight ones before, but my hands were freezing in the cold weather the past couple of weeks! Nothing else just yet but I did get quite a bit of money so I'm wondering what to get now... |

This reduces the effectiveness of my 'reasons to not go to the gym tonight' excuse compendium by 50% at least. Receiving it was one of those 'oh....oh great, thanks' moments and for perhaps the first time in my life I found myself wishing for socks, and an awful knitted jumper. TG |
