Just got me an Osprey Raptor 14 and I am excited to get out on the bike again. I know it won't really make any difference to the ride, but it just makes me want to ride more. I guess that's a good thing.

What have you recently bought that makes you want to get out on the bike?

I recently purchased some energy gels to take on my longer rides on my new cx, I've had 2 of them out of about 20 rides I keep forgetting I've put one in my saddle bag, still they make me go out further feeling a bit more confident of returning home still full of energy.

Thats the equivelant of having botox and thinking you look like Brad Pitt.

Start Cycles must have fitted out half this forum with bright kit. Finally got my Enduro sorted to get out on after my Alps crash, but already planning on moving wheels between bikes so that I can fit my impulse Pikes buy this week

the apprentice on TV is the best motivation for getting out on rainy night rides.

DeFeet over socks sounds ridiculous but actually work very well.
