A ride in the San Gabriel Valley Foothills

LA is starting to get weird. Ti-Carbon Road Disc Firefly

This road leads to the World Famous Rose Bowl. This ain't no Meadowlands

One mile from the World Famous Rose Bowl. Hay, Mr. Trump, this 15m project employs about 35 undocumented workers.

Across from above, not a GT3

I think Dr. Evil lives in this villa

Obligatory, creepy torso shot

Nothing is sacred. And, according to Peter Saville (and Tony Wilson), that would be the point

Word to the wanna be racers out there. I just finished my 4th edition of the cyclo Tour de l'Ain stage race and it's still one of the best out there. None of the frills, but plenty of thrills. Very quality field of young and old from across France, Belgium, NL, and even some mega strong Latvians this time.



Sounds sweet Ultyguy - going to have a look for next year :-)

For sure Jamie, you'd do well. A few brits come, a certain Alex Peters even used to come down before he got picked up by 'that' team.

Great shots all, keep them coming.

@ defride: Too good! You may need to convince me that those mountains aren't photo shopped into that photo... :wink:

This morning, above Torbole, North end of Lake Garda

Cycling paradise, that small town has maybe 4 bike shops and a load of rental places including demo places for the likes of Scott. That photo has just about the only piece of poor road surface in the area! Where the roads are busy or tunneled they build a bike path next to it! ...and road is a poor relation here as compared to MTB!

Nah, they're real. The Nago road overlooking Torbole and Lago di Garda with Cima Capi, Corna Frea and Cima Rocca in the back ground, if I'm not mistaken.

Great shot defride :thumbup:
