Which distance will you guys be riding? I will be there with my husband and another guy from our cycling club, carrying original green-white vintage (wool) jerseys from our club (GS Malgesso) and corresponding caps. We go for the 135 km. I will be riding a Legnano Roma Olimpiade (hopefully, when it gets ready in time, I'm still waiting fro the frame to come back from the painter); my husband will ride a Belgian 'Groene Leeuw' from the 'Watney-Maes' team, formerly owned by Frans Verbeeck. Our third member will ride a Bianchi celeste.The frame is an ordinary 'Sprint' from the 70ies, but he has it beautifully repainted and equipped with pre-war components, some of them personally reproduced from scratch. We'll have our own program on Friday and Saturday, but I'm sure we'll have a chance to meet and say hello somewhere some time during the Eroica weekend. Let's cross fingers for good weather!
