If you're anything like me, you won't start thinking about Christmas shopping until it's verging on too late. However, if you're further along the spectrum of being organised, you may get some of your shopping done in time. And if you're really weird, perhaps you've already started thinking about gifts now, a whopping 37 days out from the big day.
If you fit into that latter category, then today's post may be useful. Even if you don't, you could bookmark today's post and then set a reminder on your phone for, say, December 20th or so (and hope that the postage gods are on your side).
So, Christmas idea #1 for 2011 is the 2012 Cyclepassion Calender. It's a tasteful little number that features some of the world's leading female cyclists seductively posing with their rides.
In the words of Cyclepassion, "Side one features mostly full-color, sexy (yet tasteful) photographs of each athlete, while the side two explores the ladies' professional life with black and white action photographs."
The term "action photographs" is being used loosely. For example, here's one:
And here's another one:
But they are black and white, which means they're art which means there's no problem here. So what better gift for the art and cycling aficionado that you happen to know? None better, that's right.
You can make your overly-organised Christmas present purchase here. Or if you're like me, just set a reminder in your phone so that you can panic later.
Oh, and before I go, here's a video of one of the photo shoots for the calender that took place during this year's Tour. It features roadies Liz Hatch of the USA, Veronica Andreasson from Sweden and a whole bunch of pervs.
