Nothing there I needed that hadn't been in Lidl a couple of weeks back, so I just got some more spoke reflectors. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11208#post-126145 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 22:25:34 +0000 iweir1 126145@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Was in Aldi in Gorgie after work and noticed the crowds of cyclists, so thought to myself I bet there is an article about it on here. Was anyone else there at about 6? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11208#post-126143 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 22:15:49 +0000 Cyclingmollie 126143@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Glad to help. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11208#post-126142 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 22:06:02 +0000 Coxy 126142@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Many thanks to Cyclingmollie for assistance above and beyond the call of duty.

Think there must have been about 15 others there at opening time so I'm not surprised stock was gone by 10 as everyone seemed to have at least one merino. </p> <p>Also left with an armful (technically pannierful) of items, including a very warm pair of gloves that I was extremely glad of on the rest of the commute - it was very chilly this morning! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11208#post-126043 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:16:03 +0000 Coxy 126043@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Lots of stuff in today. </p> <p><a href="http://www.bikeradar.com/commuting/news/article/aldi-cycling-gear-for-winter-38497/" rel="nofollow">http://www.bikeradar.com/commuting/news/article/aldi-cycling-gear-for-winter-38497/</a></p> <p>Have a bag full of stuff I bought from the Gorgie shop. But the ONE thing I really wanted was sold out by 10am.</p> <p>Do you know if all the stock goes out or whether it's restocked later in the week. I'm after a gents large merino wool base-layer top. Anyone going to the Musselburgh store? </p>
