Happy New Year Grouchos! I hope you all add a very merry holiday season. And, I hope that at least some of you got some great bikey gifts. I decided that I have to show mine off because it also serves the purpose of giving some great ideas for future bikey gift giving. Or, a bikey Valentine’s Day or birthday coming up perhaps?
This is actually a combination of AFFORDABLE gifts (yes, really) that Danielle and I received over the holidays:
