Cyclopaat, an alter ego with a twist
Although I’m not yet convinced spring is really in the air, we have enjoyed some better days recently.
After months of mostly dull, gray and rainy days – without any real frost – the sun is finally showing itself.
Windy AF will not spoil the pleasure of getting out on the bike, although I’ve been slowly fading out on the way back home, facing a head wind…
It’s that time of year again, time to make new year’s resolutions.
Of course, in doing so you’re basically admitting you’ve been doing it wrong so far.
But, “it’s never too late to make a change”, right? Right?!
Right…
If you feel that you need to make a change, by all means, do.
After all, “better late than never” counts too 😂
Next year’s Vuelta is adding another country to its “friends” list: Italy.
Other countries for the Grand Depart have been the Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal and France.
Piedmont – or Piemonte – is home to the Nivolet, Finestre (Sestriere), Mont-Cenis, Agnello, and the Fauniera.
None of these will be tackled, though…
A while back I wrote a post about indieVelo.
At the time, it was new to me and I gave it a shot despite my aversion to riding in a cartoon world.
I bought myself a seat in the “Founders Club”, hoping it would help indieVelo to stay alive.
Update: I made it a 180 km trip, cycling home from the start/finish. As that was 30 km into a head wind – again – I was slowly fading away in the end…
This Saturday I will participate in the IJsselmeer Challenge.
This is one of these events when I regret being an ‘einzelgänger’ and a Bike Rebel WITH a Cause for once.
The charity the organizers have partnered up with this year, is the Dutch Brain Tumor Foundation.
