A buddy of mine at work is leaving and ive been asked by his department for ideas on what to get him as a leaving present as they really have not got a clue on what to buy him.
The only thing i can think of would be a good book on cycling, so any good coffe table style book recommendations.
Thanks

Visions of Cycling by Graham Watson
It came out ages ago (late 80s, early 90s I think) but it has some amazing iconic photos such a Davis Phinney's face just after it went through the back window of a car!! I think it's still available on Amazon

Sounds a little nerdy I know but try
The Dancing Chain: History and Development of the Derailleur Bicycle by Frank J. Berto, Raymond Henry, and Robert Shepherd (Hardcover - 27 Mar 2000)
I was skeptical when I bought it but its the best bicycle book I've ever read. Painstakingly researched and full of interesting details on the technical history of the bicycle. Well illustrated with diagrams and pictures, its great on the coffee table as well as rewarding more thorough reading.Regards0 -
