Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: braando on August 01, 2010, 11:17:24 PM Hey Rod........they both look happy cos they are being paid finally for the photo shoot and they look dry mainly because most photographers hate working in rain.......

Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: tricolore on August 02, 2010, 12:50:20 PM Mine actually looks better than that, maybe because it fits me...

Got my self a bike cover to leave at work. and Mick they had rain gear. Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: monstermick58 on August 06, 2010, 12:33:27 AM Thanks Rob, I have one more store to check locally, then its Wollongong after that if that fails, well any suggestions on 2 piece rain gear?
Mmick Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: mattyvas on August 06, 2010, 03:19:32 AM I went to Nth Sydney and left $317 there.
Cheapie GPS, excellent Synthetic jacket for $99 and socks. No rain gear, well large, XL and 2XL Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: monstermick58 on August 06, 2010, 03:26:47 AM Yep Matty,
I too purchased 2 pairs of bike socks and 2 pairs of ski socks and a multimeter and wire strippers and screwdrivers and easy-outs and a cast iron frypan Mmick Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: braando on August 06, 2010, 03:40:50 AM Mick, how long does this sale go for...?
And if it is still on Sunday and you have no rain gear......i could stick my head in the Nthn Beaches store and possibly pick you up what you need........PM me if ya desperate squire. Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: monstermick58 on August 06, 2010, 04:02:11 AM Cheers Brian, will let you know if I am not successful
Mmick Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: monstermick58 on August 06, 2010, 04:07:33 AM Oops forgot.....
The sale usually goes for how long they have the stock, so 5 minutes to 5 weeks, ok, maybe not that long but the bike gear is renowned for going pretty quick. I was reading on another board that K-Mart have bike covers on sale for twenty bucks and they are getting rid of all their bike batteries, might be an opportunity to get a battery for that project bike(s) you are doing. Mmick Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: wayne800 on August 07, 2010, 08:21:54 PM Hmm... Have submitted to the lure (false economy) of a sale.
Got the cover for parking at work > must say it's a "generous" fit (they only had large). Don't have a Harley so probably won't use it - Damn you Rob s [laugh] On the plus side, got the rain gear, even gave it a shower test & stayed dry. [clap] Mick: Limited rain gear in stock at Miranda & Menai - could go back to Menai if you need it (need size/color preference but they too are a big fit - managed to sneak into a medium even when fitted over the leathers.)

Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: monstermick58 on August 09, 2010, 12:34:33 AM Thanks guys, you are all generous to a fault, like I said I had a couple more stores to check out and yesterday I found a store that still had them, didnt try them on so I bought XL hoping that they will fit.
Mmick Title: Re: For the budget minded Rider @ Aldi Post by: suzyj on August 09, 2010, 12:41:53 AM It's okay monster mick, you'll always be a medium to me!
