Real Dutch Courage
Well, after rolling mountains and walking amongst the clouds in Italy, here’s how it can be riding at this time of year in flat, windy Holland….
(my sincerest apologies in advance for the soundtrack)
Cafe Racer, Abruzzo style
I was up in the mountains of Abruzzo near Rome last weekend, sadly didn’t bring a bike, or see any, but I saw this..
I stayed here..
there are some stunning trails..
definitely going back in the spring with a Milanese MTB!
Vittoria Lorica 1976 Cycling Shoe – SPD Sole
I really like these shoes…
I think they’re one of the best looking spd/city shoe currently available (if you’re a sartorially inspired rider)…
I’m just a little let down that Vittoria felt the need to add this detailing..
I don’t have a bike from 1976!
That said, the sole looks solid, and when I examined a pair, I was impressed with the overall construction quality.
I’d avoid these though personally speaking…
If Vittoria requires a field test report, I’d be happy to oblige!
Vintage Colnago!
Colnago C59 Mapei Decor !!!!!!!!!!!!
I caught this on the Colnago stand at Bike motion 2013…
just off center, with the strange effect inside the Mapei cubes,
the original decor was more solid..
still, if it came knocking on my stable door, I wouldn’t turn it away.

Pro Team Colnago Master
I came across these two fine examples on a recent ebay trawl..
A 1986 Colnago Master ex pro Del Tongo roadbike..
the vendor was kind enough to add to the listing this picture of a Del Tongo team rider in an unfortunate predicament..
you can see the listed bike is the exact same decor..
with Campagnolo Cobalto calipers,
and a Campagnolo Super Record seat post, complete with front and rear Colnago pantographing…
