There £40 down is warmest thing I've ever owned. Not ideal when cycling but packs down in to less than 4l so ideal for stowing in a bag when you get off. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203555 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 10:18:12 +0000 SRD 203555@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@ed1 if you want to go a bit more hi-end, there are often deals on the old styles of Altura hiviuz jackets when the new season ones come out. Not 'cheap' but substantial reductions on the original prices - easily 1/2 off if you're not fussy about the colour. and they seem to wear well. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203551 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 10:12:21 +0000 condor2378 203551@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Ed1</p> <p>You can get a Hi Viz bib thing to go over your jacket from Poundland. Should be about a pound. ;-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203535 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 01:29:51 +0000 geordiefatbloke 203535@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Aldi had some in their last event. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203502 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 18:15:51 +0000 Ed1 203502@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I need to get a HI-vis jacket as a bus driver opened the door when passing and advised me to get one last week, I am sure I noticed one somewhere was it Aldi or Lidl that had those in recently? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203500 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 18:06:08 +0000 Stickman 203500@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>+1 for decathlon gear; not just the cycling stuff. I bought a skiing base layer for £5 and it's one of the warmest tops I've ever had. They've also got some decent merino tops as well, starting at around £15. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203498 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:48:01 +0000 SRD 203498@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@beano have you tried decathlon? similar price range? we've been fairly happy with the stuff we've gotten from them so far. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203497 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:47:51 +0000 Stickman 203497@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The Gorgie Aldi still has quite a lot of stock from that event. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203495 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:44:37 +0000 geordiefatbloke 203495@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There was one 24 September, not sure if they will do another one before Christmas. Sorry, not much help really! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15711#post-203490 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:30:12 +0000 Beano 203490@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Do Aldi have an annual winter cycling event coming up? I could do with a couple of things for the winter commuting.</p> <p>not sure if they have one this side of Xmas?</p> <p>Cheers, </p>
