I have not been on my bike in so long, I spaced out the part about bike accessories. Thanks for the reminder. Now, what would my SS want/need?

depends on who she is. Some of us think the more lights the merrier (kind of like a christmas tree!)

My Nov SS included a Park Tool "mini tool" with my package and I think that's a GREAT bike gadget!
A tiny tire gauge would also be good.
I think a trip to my LBS is in order...pronto!

Now I feel guilty cause I didn't buy a cycling gadget for my SS... Oh well Hopefully I got her other interest covered.
But gadgets, Blinky lights, bottle cages, Phone holders, tire levers, saddle packs, those plastic wallets to fit a credit card and a little bit of money but is small enough to fit in a jersey pocket, SOCKS, mini pump, reflectors, those beady things for tire spokes, water bottles,
