Maybe Include a Cycling Biography?

I don't know if he's a reader or not, but maybe a book would be a nice addition for the winter doldrums. There are several excellent biographies about Jacques Anquetil, and I recently read the book Major, about Major Taylor, who broke racial and economic barriers to become the fastest "scorcher" in America at the turn of the last century. Fascinating reading...

Here's the book I read:
