What's on your list?  Mine was the new Garmin 910xt, but it looks like it will be delayed until 2012.

I just bought my first road bike, an entry level Giant, but I'm still over the moon and I think it will serve me well. It's 9 lbs lighter than the mountain bike I was riding so I already feel like I fly! That said, my wishlist includes an indoor bike trainer and training wheel for the winter months, and like the poster above, a fun jersey would be nice...and I also want a Dr. Seuss one! I saw a Cat in the Hat jersey and think it's real sweet.

This is an issue for those of us with a long history in the sport, and are on the over-the-hill slide of the consumerism nature of the sport. I've gotten to where I need LESS to train and compete. And those things I already have.

So making a list is more difficult. Which then frustrates those who want the list...

Money for new bike. The one I have is 25 years old and falling apart.

Bike trainer so I can ride indoors.  Standard time has really made it tough to get workouts in.

The Garmin 910xt was at the top of my list as was a Flo Cycling disc wheel. Guess I'll keep my fingers crossed for Valentines Day.

I don't really need anything else. Though maybe a computrainer or a foundation slot into IMFL.

Over the last few days I've tried to convince myself that there had to be something tri related that I wanted for Christmas...but there isn't and I'm ok with that.
