Secret Santa gift - ideas needed!

I see some good ideas recommended here so I thought I would ask!

Secret Santa gift for 40 yo male. Married but child free. Likes sports, particularly extreme ones, travel, food, has pets.

Not particularly into alcohol but does drink. Maybe a hamper? Or a voucher for an experience rather than stuff. But what?

He has a decent job, house etc so basically can buy himself whatever.

So hard! I usually ask his wife but I thought I would try here first. All ideas gratefully received.

Approx £30 budget.

Does he like tennis, could get a wimbledon towel?

Yeti Rambler or Stanley mug
Thermal running/cycling gloves - Tolemi is a good make
Boot bag
Scratch off world map poster
Travel pillow

With a £30 budget there's a lot more flexibility than most secret santas I've done where the budget is too small for anything good.

I would start with going to a bookshop. Ask for assistance but I am 100% sure there will be an interesting autobiographical book which resonates with a description of someone into extreme sports and travel. That will be no more than say £12.99 so you can combine it by spending the remainder on some kind of related foodie gift (eg if you find a book about extreme sports at the top of mexican mountains you get sime mexican-related treats from a posh deli)
