No #Running today, but first ride as official member of the #ColavitaNYCRacing team.

Unfortunately, I had to split with the team because of a technical issue half way through. #Grateful to the folks at the #CycleSport store, who fixed my bike right away.
they also have a coffee shop on premise: "Il freno" (the brake). Also, very nice #chat about #Cycling in #Italy
