Show me your Italian by bike?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

So, Rustle, this gallery of yours: does it have regular hours, maybe a gift shop or cafe? Or is it by appointment only?

Looks like it's pretty sweet - don't you have a slightly bigger, brighter photo to do your bike justice?
