I have the following cycling related books:

A Dog in a Hat by joe parkin
The Death of Marco Pantani
In Search of Robert Millar

All good reads. Anyone want them? I would like a good read in return. And before you start no Noddy or Enid Blytonn jokes please (i've read them all :D ).

That'd a great idea for a thread David
Mine are more like 'how to' manuals rather than biog's
  • - Advanced Marathoning by Pfitzinger & Douglas (currently promised to Jim F but can have after)
    - Total Immersion (swimming)
    - Triathlete's Training Bible by Joe Friel (getting this next week but you can borrow it after I've read it)
If anyone wants one let me know

Good post David, it's a pity, I have both Total Imersion and the Triathletes Training Bible as well, we could have saved a few bob if we had this earlier. I would love to see that DVD, have always threatened to buy one, much easier than reading. Might get that off you some time soon.

here you go Brian, from my vault. Whilst it talks about the requirements for elite xc racers, the basic principles are the same for every level of rider:
