When the dust settles....







L'EROICA 2014 ( STRADE BIANCHE)
The Ride Report that isn't a ride report.
For those of you living under a rock, the the L'EROICA is held every year in Tuscany. it is on gravel roads ( strade bianche) , you have to ride a steel bike, pre 1987, with Suicide Shifters (DT Shifters ), basket pedals, and external brake cabling.
I had my 1980 Rossin, see photos.
How did it go?
GREAT !!!
This is a pretty tough event, fair distance, very hilly, and yes, LOTS of dust.
Was it any good? ABSOLUTELY. Another event you should tick the box on.
I'm coming back.
The photos tell the story, more than any words from me....wonderful.
That's it for 2014
