Popped into *ahem* Aldi at lunchtime for a bar of chocolate (Dairyfine Hazelnut is the nads) and couldn't help but notice that they are selling biker gear. Helmets, boots and a rather fine waterproof jacket complete with built in elbow and shoulder pads (with proper hard cups) and a back protector in really heavyweight black nylon for £60. Bargain

Just thought a few of the student types might like a heads up.

They have got quite a bit of bike stuff in there. I picked up a kidney protector/warmer for £3 the other week.

As well as jackets/waterproofs tool kits, boots etc. They also have helmets for £40-£50, although I wouldn't want to wear one I'm sure it could be good as a spare helmet for somebody who wants to take somebody for a single ride without spending much.
