I've got two of those.

Actually, they're useful. Squashed banana in one's packup is not a good thing.

Where do you carry it?

My banana thingy?

It just gets chucked into my backpack or pannier.

I suppose I *could* just duck tape my banana to the drops on the bike...

Dangle it from your top tube...

That would be useful...

Not a good idea on my shrunk-in-a--boil-wash bikes

Where do you carry it?

I don't have one, but if I did, it would go down the front of my lycra

Save up and treat yourself to a safety pin to dig out the cause of a puncture in your tyre.

At least Miss Goodbody would know that you are pleased to see her.

But what if your banana curves the other way? It's downright leftist.

Good point!🧐

At least now we've left the dreaded EU,or bananas won't be straight!🧐 https://www.theguardian.com/politic...launches-the-vote-leave-battlebus-in-cornwall

Bit bored, don't need anything, what random things do I really need ?

Just ordered a big buttoned calculator as MrsF has stolen mine ! That's as exciting as things get here.

Spokey Dokey's for the bike ?

You'll be getting the big button remote control as well.

Build a
Bike from
Bits
Bought off
eBay and save
Billions !

Half the fun is finding the bits and not buying all the bits from one supplier, it important to look for the cheapest deal possible.
You will then have parts arriving from all over the world for the next 4 weeks.
(You will also probably end up with enough spare parts to start on the 2nd bike!)
