C.O.N.I. Manual
The C.O.N.I. Manual is the original cycling bible published by F.I.A.C. and the Italian Central Sports School in Rome, 1972. These very rare and long out of print manuals, and if ever for sale now, cost anywhere from $100-$250 each. We have several in pristine condition, though none are for sale.
Sand Creek Sports, Inc. will be "pdfing" this most famous cycling manual and putting it here. Adobe Acrobat Reader is needed to open the files and its best
