If you're looking for a good cycling book to read may I recommend 'The Road to Valour' the biography of Gino Bartali, a man far more than just a cyclist. _______________ "The most important thing in life is not to have the most, but to need the least.” Plato (my favourite Disney character).

Lauren Fignon Young and carefree is one of the better cycling biographies I have read.
Many other cycling books now gathering dust, so will try and drop them down the club sometime to share.
