For all of you who were soooo jealous, here’s the reality!
Embedded Files
One day of training. What could possibly go wrong?
Annnnnnd… We’re off!
First stop: soup dumplings in Flushing with Tami and Moi.
After a long red eye, we arrive to a farcical Italian immigration process.
Our bikes arrive unscathed (along with another mystery bike from Somerville, a fixie no doubt.)
Love the bars in Italy!
This one’s for you Lou!
Let’s see if this is as easy as we imagined it would be…
Almost assembled. Oops! Flat #1 (back wheel of course)
And we’re off! Where the hey… Are we getting on the autostrada?
We finally pull over and borrow the A to Zed from some polizia…
After three tries we make it out of the airport.
Picturesque country roads, paved with nothing but Etruscan pottery shards. Leading to… flat #2. (Back wheel of course.) And we are out of spares. Thank you CBI for the patch kits!
And we’re off again! Into the rain.
Finally at Anguillara Sabazia!
