Next week is the offspring's birthday. I haven't an idea of what to get him. Well I do - he's been hinting in a less than subtle way for a Dolan time trial bike and/or some carbon tri-spoke wheels. It is apparent my offspring resides on Planet Zog... So, what to get him that isn't going to cost an arm and a leg??? Inspiration guys - on what to get a cycling mad teenager??
Cheers, helen s

He'd like that - not that he fancies Nicole Cooke, but he really does admire her as a cyclist. As a mother, there is absolutely no female that is good enough for my boy, but perhaps she's better than most. Not that I'm over-protective in any way you understand ;-)

A copy of the book prouced for the 100th anniversary of the TdF?
Got a couple of books about the TdF... he's dipping in and out of the Obree book, the original Lance book and also a couple of books on Tom Simpson.
Thanks for the ideas!
