Kids bike apparel
Does anyone know a place either in Sydney CBD or online that stocks kids bike clothes / accessories e.g. gloves etc. My nephew (5 years old) is getting into off road riding on his BMX mainly on pump tracks and would like to grab him something for his birthday.
Tried a bike shop in the city yesterday and they were pretty useless.

Save $70 when you spend $375: MONEY-OFF-2
Nomadic Cafe at Old Man's Valley
Next time you're riding at Old Man's Valley, make sure you have a few coins in your pocket. The nomadic cafe is there most weekends, and makes a fantastic cup of coffee!
Local Bike Shops: Responses to common newbie queries
We often cop flack around here for not doing enough for the local bike shop, so I wanted to try something out and see what kind of response it would get...
The idea was to write to local bricks-and-mortar stores and let them know we wanted to produce a kind of editorial piece on advice from local stores, aimed mainly at relatively new riders, and invite the stores to have input into this. This forum has a large readership and it was explained that taking part would be an ideal opportunity for local stores to provide an insight into their expertise.

A quick shout out to Erina Bikeworx, they looked after me today with a good deal on a set of forks. If you live on the Central Coast check them out.
Want a bargin GPS? Bryton Rider 20 with HRM for $110 landed!
For those looking for GPS on a budget here's a great deal!
Smartphone apps are OK, but a smartphone it probably too valuable to strap onto your handlbars, probably isn't waterproof, eats through too much battery when using the GPS & screen and doesn't have a heart rate monitor.
If you are looking for a cheap GPS unit to overcome these problems then this is about as good a deal as I've ever seen.
