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

After getting back into riding with a vintage Gazelle Champion Mondial (soon to be sold), I found this beautiful Basso Ascot at a local shop. Nicely equipped with Dura Ace and Mavic components. It rides beautifully. It's nice to be back on tubulars.

I had that same bike! And that one looks to be my size too. Mine had full Dura Ace, no Mavic. I miss it...

No one should be allowed to look at this bike unless they are over the age of 18 and can explain why they are looking at porn the day they die....
