It’s not just springtime in Oslo. It’s Brompton time. First ride of the year.

#brompton

In #Brompton, la persona che fisicamente ha brasato il telaio della bicicletta vi imprime le sue iniziali. Se mai arriverà il giorno in cui andrò a visitare la fabbrica, potrò rintracciare il signor (o la signora) FB e ringraziarlə personalmente per la bici fantastica che mi hanno costruito.

Ma quant'è figa questa cosa?

Italian flair is in the air. It reminds me of films by Frederico Fellini. Over there, doesn't the guy smile like Marcello Mastroiani? The center of town would fit for a crowd singing Adriano Celentano's "Il Ragazzo Della Via Gluck". And then the girl over there. She's looking a bit like Gianna Nannini. She smiles and my head starts humming "Bello e impossibile". I continue chewing on my pizza capricciosa on Piazza Giacomo Matteotti in Udine.

Agréablement surpris par la visite de la Maison du vélo à #Antony : https://www.veligo-location.fr/maisons-du-velo/croix-de-berny

Un large choix de vélo, testable facilement et louable (dont un #brompton !!) pour une courte ou longue durée le tout dans un lieu moderne et accueillant 😍

Et ils proposent également plein d'animations autour du vélo !

A visiter si vous êtes à proximité d'une de ces maisons, ça vaut le coup d’œil.

Et il y a même un atelier d'auto-réparation pour les petites pannes 🔥

Another day in spring paradise here north of Bologna, Italy. Temperatures were just right for a splendid tour with the Brompton along the river Po. Saw plenty of pheasants trying to hide from me, and saw rabbits jumping around in typical Easter fashion. Nature is showing its happiness in full blow.

What a relaxed and pleasant ride this was yesterday. I am on my way south from Verona to Bologna. I bicycled through villages, farm land, and the closer I came to the river Po the more water was all around me. Plenty of birds on the water and blossoming trees. Right now I am having an Italian breakfast. I must say, the Italians are good with coffee.

20kmh average speed on a #brompton, in semi urban environment so with a few stops.

Z1/z2...

Maybe I should consider cycling instead of #trailrunning
