Picked this guard up off eBay. I'm sure it's not anyway correct but it looks cool. And the only bike I have at the moment without a guard is my black iver. May have to rough it up a bit if I decide to leave it be.
 
Pretty stoked about these goodies.

You know you're a dork when your favorite stocking stuffer is bike grease.

I've been oogling this ottolock for months. It's so lightweight and easy to use. I've been hauling a u lock around, hearing it bang against the bike every bump in the road and then battling to find something to lock it to.
Can't wait to use this baby.

Then I bought myself a gift. Haven't seen a Connecticut tag before and I grew up just outside of Hartford so I couldn't help myself.

Yeah I just broke the promise I made to myself not to buy any more loose wheels. I few weeks ago I began the seemingly impossible task of conquering the clutter in my life. I put away all the wheels I have on these custom racks I made and when I was done I realized the last thing I need in my life is another wheel. I'd been resisting this one for the last few weeks but when I saw it relsited last night at $60BIN how could I resist? I feel so ashamed. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wooden-Steel-Clad-Wheel-Ballooner-NOT-28-Elgin-Schwinn-Aerocycle-Bike-Bicycle/112720382989?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

I did buy myself one big item, its not here yet but on its way. A Spot Wazee to replace my 10 year old Spot Highline daily rider, I am going from 3 to 11 speeds, so my knees are looking forward to 2018............Spot Bikes is having a holiday sale right now if anyone is looking for a good deal, or at least they were a few days ago.

It been a fun week off of work; I picked up a Gendron boys bicycle (in classifieds) , fenders for a 1940 Umberto Dei bike I’m working on, handle bars, early top races, stems, 1940 & 1951 Umberto Dei catalogs, NIB Phillips fork mounted brake assembly, and a reproduction mechanical bank of a toad on a penny farthing.
