Receiving a packet in the post is always fun. Especially when it isn’t your birthday and you weren’t expecting anything. When have recently become a cycle nut it’s even more exciting when said packet is covered in Belgian stamps and has the name Eddy Merckx stamped in the top corner.

Not more fan-mail from Mr Merckx – he really does love BikeVCar
As it turned out, the packet was the lifetime warranty for my new Merckx EMX-3 bike frame. But it also included a hardback photo book of his many victories. Next time I’m struggling up a local hill in nasty weather I can picture Merckx in one of these shots and remember to push harder and not complain. Great stuff.
