Bugger.
It's now out of date already. Haven't had chance to start it yet.
At least he'll get a few more quid when it's reissued with the knighthood chapter 🙂

Yep, gift from Ms brodie.

Yep and Tyler's book. Every year I just send out my Amazon wish list and people get me things from that. Means I get something I want which often didn't used to be the case and I'm rubbish at hiding disappointment.

Yep, from SIL, plus the 21 Days to Glory book from the parents, chuffed with both frankly.

Yep, from SIL, plus the 21 Days to Glory book from the parents, chuffed with both frankly.

Wife got me them both in a pack from Wiggle I think?

She also got me quite a few other beautiful photography books some including the spring classics 😀

Yep, got it and Vicky P's book from various in-laws over Xmas. Will read Sir Wiggo's first though.

Yup. Anyone want to swap it for the Secret Race?

Ah. Just got given a second copy!

Yep me to, and Matt Seatons book.

Yup and Secret Race as well.

Were they the first two on Amazons 'cycling books' recommendations or something?

May start one of them tonight 🙂

Yeah I got it. It's dreadful, worst, most boring cycling book I've ever read. And I've read a lot.

The thing with fairly well adjusted pro cyclists like Wiggo is that all they ever do is get up, ride a bike all day since their early teens. It doesn't make for much reading material really. I think it's only with bitter hindsight and a willing to spill the beans like Paul Kimmage that makes it interesting. Or someone like Obree who has a whole other side to his personality.
