This reminds me when my wife bought me an all in one bib/leggings thing. I looked like Freddie Mercury, circa 1975.

If he can keep a pair of shoes at the office, a pair of cycling cleats and pedals might go down well. They take a bit of getting used to but he'll find they speed up the ride a bit. Shimano do a good system (SPD) that's got a lot of price entry points. You could get him the shoes and someone else could get the pedals.

As has been mentioned, Wiggle.co.uk has all the gear (I got a really cheap lights/computer set from there a while back ? about ?25 I think), but I'm sure Balfe's Bikes could advise, or the bike shop opposite Brockwell Park in Herne Hill.

If money was no object, try www.rapha.cc. But I think you have to be an eccentric millionaire for that one.

  Hello, I’ve got a 1980’s one if you’re interested it works fine a bit old school
- Excellent Carpenter Recommendation - Greg

  Another recommendation for Greg. He provided excellent service - fast response, quote and then fitting the job in. The inbuilt wardrobes he made are of a very high quality and he was a pleasure to work with. Helped us with some additional shelving and a broken floorboard too. Highly recommend!
- Plumber recommendation - Andy Burke

  I would also like to recommend Andy for plumbing. I had a leak under my kitchen tap and he was able to visit and resolve the issue in the same day. Prompt and efficient service and very professional.
- Tessa Jowell centre car park.

  It's about ensuring it's the medical facilities you are accessing, hence the sign-in actually in Tessa Jowell. And I think there are visual as well as camera checks, after all a number of people drive in and out of the car park to drop patients off. Clearly they are not parked up, so it's not relevant if they are fleetingly on camera. It's only those actually parked who need to identify themselves as patients.
