Although I tried to be as naughty as I could, I believe that Santa will find it in his heart to grant me my wishes (yeah, right):
1. For Commuting, I want the Bakfiets, so I could carry my 2 kids AND their stuff around. It is also rare and I bet I would attract a lot of attention.

I would also ’settle’ for a Calfee Bamboo fixie if the Bakfiets is too big to carry on the sleigh.

2. I love panniers and I would really like the Lone Peak’s garment pannier, that way my co-workers would stop asking me if a cow chewed me up and spat me out.

I also need a grocery pannier to carry my beer home, Banjo Brother’s grocery pannier would be an excellent choice.

3. For my Mountain Biking habit I would really dig a KHS XC Team Full suspension bike, since it’s hard to lose weight ‘cuz of my affinity for beer, I might as well ask for a super light bike (not only that, Melissa Buhl won a championship on this bike).
I’ll take the KHS Flagstaff as my second choice.
4. Since I’m a metalhead, Primal Wear’s Metallica ‘Ride The Lightning’ (one of their best albums) would be freaking awesome
or their new Star Wars jersey as a second choice (what can I say, I’m still a bike geek.)
That’s basically it, nothing over the top, no $10K Colnago, or $100 Assos Jersey or performance enhancement drugs.

Moe, wouldn’t you want a heavier bike, due to your affinity for beer? - therby causing you to work harder and subsequently burn more calories, heretofore negating the effects of drinking said beer.

Nah, I already have one: The KHS AM2000 34.5lbs of All Mountain bike!

That Star Wars jersey is the shiznit…add that to my Christmas list!!!
I want a bakfiets, too, but I’ve already got a bicycle graveyard going on in and around my house…my wife will FREAK if I bring yet another one home. I added two more to my collection a couple days ago when my friend brought over two Treks. …they are both lying in pieces all over my deck.

Jack, you should weld your own Bakfiets together with some of your old bike frames!
