Howdy folks,

At the risk of turning this forum into a 'uk hot deals' site, thought i would mention that my mate recently got me a 1.5l camel pack from asda for three pounds in the bargain bin.

I've noticed too that shops seem to be discounting the cycle accessories near me. Not sure if its the same nationwide but i think that now the summer is over, might be a good time to get some bargains in!

If anyone knows any good places to buy cheap cycling clothes on line, do tell!!

Cheers all
Jim

Lidl will be selling some thermal sports long sleeved tops for £12.99 and thermal 'long johns' (that look very similar to cycling pants) for £9.99 - starting Thurs 5th Nov, they look ok for the price and maybe worth a look! Not sure they're at every store so might be a good idea to check their website.

Hi Jim,
Sadly I think that you get what you pays for...
Daughter swaers by Minx, really great quality, warm/dry and smart..really worth that Xtra bob or so..
However there are some great bargains -end of line out there, I have seen some stuff at Lidl but it's always the wrong size!

Agree with above!

I bought some bib-shorts from Aldi, just don't fit right at all! My Nalini ones are so much better.

Typical, i was browsing the net for a waterproof jacket for myself and found this for a tenner

http://www.cyclesense.co.uk/products.php?plid=m18b6s217p7715

So SWMBO now has a new jacket on order

Looks like a bargain for anyone who is or knows someone who is a size 8 and needs/wants a new jacket
