Old School Hero
In 2008 I did my first L'Eroica. I did the 205k on an old steel Bianchi. Nice bike and nice jersey.
Here the Bianchi in 2008 in Gaiole where L'Eroica has it's start and finish
And put on some nice jersey
The bike and I get to the finish but it became 12 very hard hours.
Next year I would be better prepared!
But also an other bike. The Bianchi is lovely but so many Italian ride on a Bianchi so for 2009 L'Eroica I choice for a Dutch bike: a Gazelle!
I became one for free but it was a horrible bike. Dust and rust and every tube was with damage.
So I had to look further.................
