Ride for Saturday, 22 December

Rode down to the Farmer's Market and did my weekly shop. A lot of farmers said they wouldn't be there next weekend, so I had to pick up extras - 2 weeks' worth of apples, for example, which made for a slow ride home.

My latest order from Probikekit.com arrived. This time customs had decided it was "clothing for women or young girls", and I got $25 duty and another $25 tax slapped on it as a nasty added extra. If anyone knows a Probikekit/Nashbar-alike in Canada I'd be most interested...

Yep... that's on a $150 order. The $25 tax I could live with, the $25 tax is taking the piss just a little bit...
