    Christmas present for my brother in law who took up cycling during the year. Looking at spending about €100. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Bib tights.

    (Note to purists: I know 3/4 tights are against the rules but these will do all the way to spring and anything is better than half-shorts, double shorts or other crimes against cycling fashion)

    It's more of a 'what would I do if I ever had €100 to blow list'

    Some top quality rain gear would be nice.

    Argos Shimano team kit delivered for €41, reduced from €100.

    Don't tell him about reduction and drink the difference
