10335.26 miles from home. I've riden bikes in all their amazing forms my entire life. Now that I've moved to Amsterdam, i'm surrounded by thousands of bikes daily, and it feels so good. This blog is a small tribute to the wheel and especially those that use spokes to create their passage through life.

Also, some pro-looking stem slam.

In complete contrast to the urban and modern Parkour Ride which took place in London, L’Eroica vintage bike ride is held in the Chianti area of Tuscany every first Sunday of October and is something really traditional and truly unique. Every bike that takes part in the event must be a road bike, been made before 1987 and come equipped with down-tube, shifters, external brake cables, and pedals with toe-clips. The 5,000 riders who take part come from all over the world and many compete wearing vintage cycling gear http://www.theguardian.com/sport/gallery/2014/oct/06/leroica-vintage-bike-ride-in-pictures
