We brought our tandem for a cycling tour of Italy but it got lost at the Milano airport so we had to rent bikes during the trip. I am envious of your rides and adventures. Thanks for sharing a part of your life and travels.




We took the Italian dream to the next level in 2021 when we purchased a home near Lago Maggiore (and covid didn't derail us), see ;
