Kayla is getting some cool bike stuff, but not a bike (I bought her a bike, but when she found out, she told me to return it).

Bicycle related gifts for the holidays
I know Christmas day is a few days away, and Chanukah has already passed. Some of you have gotten/will get some bicycle related gifts.
I had a gift exchange with friends from out of town and got this cute little necklace:
and my husband got me new little bike lights and wool socks. we did stockings early.
anyone get anything yet that they are excited about? a new bike?

I got hubby some icebreaker stuff... and went ahead and got myself some too 
(don't tell him, he doesn't know yet) He's already given me the most fluorescent yellow waterproof jacket known to man and some gloves that are good spring/fall gloves. I'm totally getting him a bike for his birthday in March.
stefb - that necklace is sweet

Hey, ejwme, I have a highly reflective jacket on my Christmas wish list. I think Santa might be bringing one. Is yours just bright yellow, or does it also have the reflective strips? I want bright AND glowing. If yours fits the description, can you tell me the brand? I hear Santa takes last minute clarifications on gift requests.

Oooh, and the fundraiser Santa brought me a new light and awesome Cannondale gloves!

swalfoort - my jacket is just bright yellow. I need to stripe it with reflective tape. It was waterproof and windproof, which I was sorely lacking (I biked exactly ONCE in my down jacket, absolutely never again unless I'm in Alaska). I figure either reflective tape or reflective ribbon sewed on (probably the latter is cleaner but less waterproof) will do nicely, it was only ~$40, but not what you're looking for.

I just gave Stef the best bike related gift. I donated a bike in her name at 88bikes.org
