Ah, you were telling me about this at Easter. I know absolutely nothing about bikes, modern or period, but that does look rather splendid.

“I wanted to come to the Volga at a specific location at a specific city. By chance it carries the name of Stalin himself. So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."

It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

Great - I can be victim of a German drive-by shooting this year, then.

You must be rich?
Last time I went they were selling standard Sturm stuff at top level prices? And it was out of season.
Bloody good museum though.

Prices didnt seen too bad, smock - £35, grenades £10 each, spork £5, helmet cover £15, trousers £35, braces £5 i'd say that was about right but yes some of the other stuff was a tad expensive ( original helmet and cover 4000+euro 
) and yes, the meseum is really good even though it's small

From Derby's Cattle Market carboot sale this morning:
1x 1943 dated British '37patt wire-cutter pouch, in lightly used/washed-out condition, but still completely usable with no damage
2x (a pair) 1941 dated British '37patt 3-pocket cartridge pouches, in unused condition, but with non-pebbled buttons and straight belt attachments rather than kinked, so perhaps Commonwealth made?
2x tins of 1940s British military "Sterilizing Outfit - For use with waterbottles", complete with miniature glass bottled contents and instructions. One has a brown lid with creamy-green writing in mint condition, the other had a black lid with apple-green writing in a semi-rusty condition.
All of the above for £14!
1X 1955 dated faux-leather British army jerkin, in mint-unissued condition - £1!

could you have a look for a pair of Mk2 brit ammo pouches for me next time 
2x (a pair) 1941 dated British '37patt 3-pocket cartridge pouches, in unused condition, but with non-pebbled buttons and straight belt attachments rather than kinked, so perhaps Commonwealth made?
Those are not British and not '37 pattern.
There is a great debate over where they actually come from but all agree they are not what they are usually sold as.
The '37 pattern carrier only had two pockets.

If you look a page 33 of the 1st edition of 'Equipment of the WWII Tommy' by D. B. Gordon it shows 3 pocket cartridge pouches and web belts of earlier patterns that were still being produced for limited issue at the beginning of the war after Pat 37 webbing had been officially adopted.
