L'Eroica
Hi Ed
superb report and pictures, makes the legs hurt.
am so impressed that I am going to run
' L'Erioka 2011 Ynys Mon'
over my favourite training rides on the isle of anglesey, both tarmac and farm tracks.
will be a charity ride possibly for the Air Ambulance and a childrens charity.
will be around 70 miles or a short one 30 miles
rules will be simple
road/cross bikes but must be fitted with the following :-
Quill handlebar stem so no ahead
gear levers on the down tube or on the handlebar ends or single fixed/single speed
Alloy wheel rims and a minimum of 28 spokes front and rear ok Bamboo ones if anyone has any straight ones !!!
No Carbon seatposts/handlebars/chainset
rest is free
will keep a regular update.

Get write-up, chaps. I was seriously interested but was already committed to going to a friend's wedding in the same region (Vagliagi, just N of Siena) last weekend - ie the weekend after - and doing both wasn't an option, sadly. The countryside around there is magnificent, but our hire car was having a bit of trouble on some strade bianchi so I dread to think how I'd have fared on a road bike!
Ed - in an earlier thread you mentioned looking into wool RetroBike jerseys. Did anything ever come of that line of enquiry?
Cheers,
Gareth.
