Wondering what purchases you made (bike, tires, accessories, bags, lights, etc.) that you were especially happy with in 2022.
A couple things I got this year were:
1) stretchy bands that are great for keeping pants from getting in the chain, for holding the front wheel when working on the bike, etc. etc. etc. These have a bit of rubbery stuff on one side that keeps them from slipping around. Cheap too.
2) Ortlieb Fork Pack - just the size I want for the front fork. Small enough not to make steering feel sluggish, big enough to hold extra clothes or other light items. The mounting system is secure and makes it easy to take them on and off. Because they are slimmer than other front fork bags, they aren't as difficult to get through the many gates on some cycle paths.
3) Workman rainsuit - cheap, durable, effective.
