I'm probably not much use in suggesting presents for other halves, seeing as I've asked my other half for new tyres for the 696 when they next need replacing (fairly soon), a new visor and pinlock (early Christmas pressie so I can see where I'm going commuting on dark wet winter evenings) and a pair of funky iridescent purple Doc Marten boots!
Mrs C.... If only mine were that easy?! She doesnt do the bike thing at all these days, riding or passenger And we are chopping in an old car Hellcat...reliability and zero cost repairs the way forward ;-)
Ive already been assigned her 'list'. Tip - don't listen to her best mates suggestions. I did one year not realising it was a pisstake. Wifey didn't appreciate sewing box and sewing stuff. Her mate pissed herself. I was in the doghouse. Until she found out why.
