I generally try and keep this journal focused on technology issues, but this is one bit of frivolity I couldn’t pass up:
Andrew Savory and Steve Loughran mention the idea of an Apache Bike Team.
I’m in! I’m always happy to take people for a ride through the nearby Colli Euganei and/or Colli Berici if they happen to come through my section of northern Italy, which really is a wonderful place to ride a bike. Spring, Summer and Fall are best, but even in winter it’s often nice (about 10C and sunny today, although I’ve been stuck inside with the flu this week…argh).
(I’ll also take a minute and plug my friend’s bike racing/training/touring camp business too: raceitalia.com/)
Now if only I had more time to be out riding myself…
