A Fox Defend "Elevated" shirt in red and black to match my bike. A pair of Muc-Off waterproof socks (my current Sealskinz have not only shrunk, but the lining comes out when I take them off). But most importantly...
Not even the slightest of frowns from my wife when I mentioned that I was looking a buying at new bike in the Spring. :ROFLMAO:

A very swish set of OneUp V2 carbon handlebars in 760mm/20mm rise. Very funky looking and by coincidence, the stealth “One” on the bars, sort of ties in with the “On” printed on the stem*! For when I’m “on one”

*its going on a canyon NeuronOn:Fly**

**which is very stealth, mainly all black except the decals on the Pike fork, which are chrome. And they do OneUp handlebar decals in chrome…..tempted, but it’s potentially a slippery slope and you can ruin a bike with too much bling.

I got one of them at the beginning of 2024 - with a specific task in mind. Storm damage to a trail that I frequented… and the alternate route wasn’t very bike friendly.

Took me 3 different visits to do this one and another smaller tree… but it still looks the same almost 2 years later!

How can you ruin a bike with too much "stealth"? Who would notice? :ROFLMAO:

I once stealthed out a Norco Sight 1. I even had pukka Fox "stealth graphics on the shock and forks. They were satin black on black and you could only tell if you looked at just the right angle. I was on target to do similar with the rim graphics when I sold the bike.

Of course to be really stealthy, I should have had no graphics at all, just a protective film. :)

A few years ago I purchased the ultimate stealth EMTB. It was completely covered with “invisible” paint. I’m still looking for it …somewhere in my bike cave I hope. 🤞
 
This is actually the first year I didn’t get anything “bike” related at all. I’m planning to buy a new bike this spring, just waiting to see what new options will be available by the time I’m ready to pull the trigger.

I got a bunch of new coffee gear though, including a Comandante X25 hand grinder for when I’m out camping as taking pre-ground beans was a pain in the ass.

I said too much bling.… having a good Boxing Day? 🥂
 
A prostitute's favourite client is said to be Santa Claus.
He only comes once per year, but when he does he empties his sack and fills her stockings! :ROFLMAO:
My daughter would probably call that a “dad-joke”…I hear that a lot from her.🤷🏼‍♂️
 
Fox Ranger pants, Ranger shorts, and a couple Troy Lee long sleeve jerseys. Needed something more than shorts and short sleeves since I’ve begun pre-dawn rides before work and it’s chilly here (metro-Phoenix, Arizona) before the sun comes up this time of year.
 
Post-Boxing-Day and the recycling truck is about to arrive. Was a great Xmas but now I have 4-5 times more recycling than usual. (Envelopes, wrapping paper, cardboard, aluminum cans etc.).
Can’t wait for next Xmas 🎅

Are you selling last year's calendar or are the pages stuck together?
