Fancy some cycling related holiday reading? A new DVD for those Turbo sessions you definitely don't do when you're unable to get out due to working so hard (you know who you are!)? Then I have an offer for you!

 

Down the years, I have accumulated a whole host of cycling books and DVDs and most of them just sit there, unloved for months on end, so I thought, why not lend them out to those who'll get some pleasure from them?

 

If anyone's interested, PM me and I'll send you a list or, if anyone is interested I'll post up here.

I've got the Tyler Hamilton tell all book.

Just finished it and its certainly an eye opener...unless you don't believe him!

As much as I kind of thought most folk were at it, it's still surprising!

 

Might have to borrow David Millar's from you Phil.

 

I read it a while back and was also a bit surprised. I thought I knew what was going on, but the extent of it and the routine way in which they all did it to hit the numbers really shocked me...
