Default So... what did you get, what was under your tree?

What did Santa bring for you this morning? Any good bike toys, farkels, or other cool stuff? My two daughters are older teenagers now and want NOTHING but clothes, but my 10 year old son still gets the cool toys that Dad can play with. I got the mandatory pair of PJ's... and a sweet pair of binoculars.

Care to share what you got?

I got my 2012 V-Strom.
Then I bought myself a Bestem top box and crash bars.

My wife got me an Xelement riding jacket. Now I can ride in cold weather without having to wear sweatshirts under my summer jacket.
I know, South Carolina and cold weather seems a little weird. I was riding to work when it was 29 F. That's the coldest I've ridden in so far.

As empty nesters we don't even bother to put up a tree anymore. I hate to say it because it sounds so Scrooge-like, but it's a relief to avoid the whole holiday hassle. We keep the radio tuned to a Christmas-themed station and that's it.

But we will start shopping for bargains tomorrow.

Santa brought me a set of Happy Trails crash bars and highway pegs. Still waiting for the belly pan to arrive. Also got a new rear Tourance to replace the shot stock rear. Coming soon will be a new front Tourance and a tank bag. Can't wait for summer. Thanx, Santa.

While not technically under my tree.... I got another local buddy to ride with. Congrats on the bike J_Bone.

Now I am shopping for a new Kilimanjaro jacket with some Xmas cash for some winter rides.
