At last, (for cyclists in Croydon) there is now a nearer branch of
Aldi than the one in Catford. A new one opened in Selsdon today
(Thurs 4 Oct) (on the site of the old Somerfield supermarket, at the
bottom end of the line of shops on Addington Road).
I popped in to see if they were giving anything away on Day 1, and
they immediately have cycle stuff.....!

I got 2 winter cycling shirts (choice of ~4 colours/styles) for
£6.99 each. Winter cycling shirts means they are long-sleeved,
although no thicker than normal jerseys. They also have a hi-vis
yellow rain jacket for £9.99 (both mens and womens styles), winter
cycling trousers (with padded seat insert, like cycle shorts) for
£9.99 (both mens and womens styles), waterproof trousers (for £9.99,
I think?), and a cycling jacket (thicker than the jerseys) for
£14.99. The above things are all hanging up. Opposite these (in
metal cage bins), they also have a cap and overshoes set for £4.99,
some cycling gloves and a coiled cable lock (can't remember the
prices of these last two!).

Get there before the eBay cowboys discover them.......!

Cheers
