In looking around the deepest darkest Interweb for bike bargains, cute mtb clothing and interesting accessories, sometimes items appear that just HAVE to be mentioned. Etsy is a huge community of users that buy and sell handmade items, and one member has created… wait for it…. reusable mountain bike sandwich wrappers!

Mmmm bacon
Granted its not the most useful thing that has ever been made, but I suppose it saves you on those mini plastic bags to wrap your sambo in, AND makes you look cool in the lunchroom, AND it saves bits of the sandwich falling out of the sandwich (I hate when that happens, especially bits of lettuce, and then you have to squash them back in). So all in all, weighing up the pros and cons, I think this is a necessary accessory for any biker. Buy it from: www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25455873 (ah go on its only 6 dollars!)

I dare someone to buy this and take a photo of it on. Sure its only AUS$120.00 (argh).

There is some text on the side of the jersey that I cant quite work out. Anyone care to offer some alternatives (moo-untain biking, anyone)? (Sorry that was terrible, my brain is a bit mushy from biking tonight).

Please note it says ‘One eyed willy’ on the side of this jersey…

Just came across this on Wiggle: www.tinyurl.com/lcsg5k
A Sombrio Cloud jersey for only 15 pounds (free shipping to UK and Ireland)!!! I was a bit unsure about this top but then found this review on Muddbunnies (www.tinyurl.com/mh93xj) and it looks gorgeous on one of their club members:

Pretty
I have a couple of Sombrio tops and can vouch for their durability and great sizing, especially over armour. Get it while you can!

Ok, so I have decided to have a category for clothes that *might* be nice on, but because of poor photography and/or lack of actual tangilble contact with the garment I cant decide whether it is gick or slick. Take this Kona Circle Jersey (www.konaworld.com):

Roundy
I love Kona clothes. I think they do great sizing and I have bought loads of their stuff before. Their freeridey tops (to be reviewed) are great, and dont fall apart even after 100,000 super mucky washes. This top has polka dots (woo) but shit-brown stripes (boo), but I have a feeling that it will be super-pretty on (*cough* maybe Kona would like to send me one to try on *cough*)
