bloody weather!

the weather has been a shocker of late. almost 5 weeks of rain... in summer. very unusual for sydney. normally by now the fires are a serious threat but this year there hasn't even been close to one in the Blue Mnts. all this rain is not allowing me to do much riding at all. i rode yesterday for 12km total and the first 3 was a complete downpour. i was so wet again i had to stop and ring my shirt out at the local shops. i did get to take the boys down to the regatta centre with firenza [tarini].
santa was good to me. so i do have the cash to pick up some nice bike gifts but the places i want to go shopping have sold out of what i want. i have to do a once only shop due to shipping costs.

i've found another couple of pretty impressive online bike stores
NOS - has some really awesome New Old stock that is just another reason i need to win lotto!

i am still bidding on the NOS presto steel valve caps. bizarre turn of events. i was outbid by one bidder then i had a second chance offer, but didn't take it at full price - i am still hoping to get them to AUS for under $20 AUS. fingers X'd
