What book?

[magnatom]

I've discovered that my wife has purchased a cycling related book for me for my Christmas. I'm really interested to know what it will be as she isn't a cyclist and isn't particularly interested in it (although she has suggested she might be when she stops producing babies!).

So what book do you think she would get me? What book would a cycling widow buy her husband?

Maybe Lance's autobiog? It's supposed to be very good, especially his attitude to dealing with his cancer

This is one I don't think she will get me. I suggested previously to her, while I admire what he has done, I'm not a big fan.

Oi! If there is one thing I have been blessed with is fairly meaty thighs! Shame about the rest of the body!

The Bonj book of cycling. Where that bloke with the eagle on his head feared to tread.

Where is it now? Should have been signed by thousands...own up!

Halfords mechanics training manual ?

My vote would have been LA's biog, although given your comments I will now put my money on Cav's book, is it Boy Racer?

Reading this at present. It's good.

I've got the Crap Cycle Lanes book already. The others are a possibility. Although I would be very happy with the Bonj book. I would like to be a SERIOUS cyclist one day!
