if you buy it from Smiths for 9.99, you''ll also get a branded wiggle bottle (approx 600ml) with 3 gels and some sports drinks "tablets" gratis.

    They have a box with the water bottles loose behind the counter, I looked instore first for 5 minutes looking for the ones with water bottles and any indication of a offer but gave up and purchased anyway and after I paid they gave me the bottle with my change.

    Official guides can be a bit anodyne, but hinault is on top form in this one. Tears into people like karpets, cunego, even van den broeck (for being defensive) and the whole of katusha. Quite funny.

    He likes wiggo though. Was surprised with that - or did he give special consideration for the english version of the guide?

    it's £7.50 round here. I'm wondering if I got the same one? Still got the wiggle bottle and gels.

    well having had a quick look, I've got a different one with no Hinault section. I only bought it on the recommendation above. The Cycle Sport one that I got is pretty poor really. If it wasn't for the bottle and gels it would have been £7.50 wasted.
