WorkSMART - from workSMART.org.uk. Secret Santa is a way of organising mystery gifts, so that everyone gets something suited to them, and nobody goes overboard giving loads of presents. Everyone buys a gift (up to a pre-determined maximum value) for someone else on the list, but nobody knows who it was that bought the gift they received. You can use this tool to set up a Secret Santa list of your own, and it will anonymously pair everyone with a gift recipient, and email them who to buy for.

To create a Secret Santa list you need to be logged in, and you'll need to return to this page to check when all your list members have confirmed and you're ready to start matching them up.

If what you're after is getting the maximum possible speed/distance for the minimum effort (and there's nothing wrong with that!) You need a multi-speed bike...but, efficiency isn't everything! If you're riding for sheer pleasure, or for exercise, you don't necessarily place that high a premium on output results, as measured in speed, distance or vertical climb. Riding a singlespeed can help bring back the unfettered joy you experienced riding your bike as a child.

Paradoxically, a singlespeed is, in another sense, more efficient than a multispeed bike! Singlespeed vs Fixed Gear Flip-flop Hubs. Dmr Single Speed Conversion Kit.
