I used their winter cycling gloves in sub zero mtb spins over the past couple of winters.. Need to dig them out again shortly :)

I'd slightly disgagree with DF. Most of it is $hite but it's worth going down for a look because every now and again they hit the spot e.g. I got a really good base layer for about €12 a while back. Would have been €30 anywhere else. And you can't go wrong with a pair of winter gloves for €7. They're going to be destroyed with muck and grease anyway so why pay more?

And look at this lovely triathlon suit! ;)

I'll second the base layers, great value to be fair. Saddle bags are grand for the road but not suitable marathon champs! I'll try out the gloves and socks this time

Aye.

When Aldi says: Comfort fit with extra support
I say: Ill fitting with a saggy ar$e

and as for the triathlon suit: why is yer wan carrying her bike around in the spilling rain?

Base layers are good. have one of the jackets too good on the road bike or on the mountain in the depths of winter.

Oh Lord.

I will admit to having one of those base layers.

It's $hite :D

DC, I'm surprised at a man of your sophistication falling for the old 'its only €7' trick...

Yeah I remember, you were the one squealing with the pain furiously clapping your hands together ;)
