Fishes on their bikes
With fins to pedal and steer
Making humans smile!
Wouldn’t it though! This is such an effective shot for giving you a feel for the event. Look at those expressions of complete concentration.
3 years agoThanks! I’m glad I took it partly to remember biking across this unusual bridge - a strange surface, no railings at all, a rushing river just beneath. I wouldn’t care to cross it on a windy day.
3 years agoThanks! I thought no one would ever notice. And that’s not all that’s new in this photo.
3 years agoNice new helmet.
3 years agoI can’t help but wonder whose idea it was to put fish on bicycles.
3 years agoWorse than that - two in the same day! And yes, Italy has its share of ugly towns. We don’t feel the need to encourage them though by spending our tourism dollars there.
3 years agoKey problems two days in a row? That's got to be a first. By the way, does Italy have any ugly towns?
3 years agoIt would be awesome going the other direction. When you come down, I would start at San Cristoforo, just east of Trento but on the lake side of the pass. That’s where the bike route really begins - it’s kind of a mess between there and Trento. You could bike down to Bassano and then catch the train back up. Even better, ride it as a out and back..
3 years agoCool shot!
3 years agoOh, that would be great to see in person!
3 years agoNice!
3 years agoThanks, Keith. I suspected it might not be as durable as a Marathon. Hopefully will last me until we make it back home at least.
3 years agoHi,
I rode Victoria’s for years. I rate them average. Lighter than the Schwalbes, but not as puncture resistant. 7 to 10 K kilometers would be about the best one could expect for 700C tires. Yours, because they are smaller will wear faster.
Cheers,
Keith
Wow! Now that's an attractive bird!
