I think I may be going back tonight for another visit, at least for some vests.

At a risk of showing my naivety, I've never given a second thought to the socks that I wear whilst cycling and just grab the first pair of gym socks that comes to hand in the drawer in the right colour. What is it about these Lidl socks that make them "superb" ?

the socks have gel pads around toes and heel amazingly comfy :-)

Wore my new top and vest today - going to try to get a spare top tomorrow if there's any left

Tried to wear my new top this morning - the zip broke.

Netto are getting wireless computers in and a few other bike bits on Monday.

And this morning one of my SPD cleats ripped the thread out of one of the shoes - starting to think that you get what you pay for.

I find Lidl stuff a bit hit and miss. Computers are a false economy for me as they seem to last just over a year and die. But I've got one of those gilets and been using it a lot for a few years now - great bit of kit.

Aldi kit is slightly better IMO.
