It's 20years ago since I (we) left the UK.
The vast majority of that time has been spent here on the Umbria Tuscany border around 90mins from Firenze. I took up cycling again around 6 years ago. We have a tour operator business. For the first few years, we focused on skiing.
Then our ski rental partner in the Dolomites made me ride one of his eMTB's.
On my first ride, I giggled all the way up the 800m climb, and I haven't stopped giggling since - we call it an e-Smile! Now we have a summer cycling business in Tuscany, Umbria and Emilia Romagna.
But guess what?
For my 60th birthday last October, my business colleagues surprised me with the first muscle bike that I have owned since I was 16 or so. I love it! Last year we made a few YouTube videos with Leonard Lee. You can watch the Tuscany videos riding e-Road bikes here and the Emilia Romagna videos riding Pinarello's here.
I am hoping to continue the growth of my cycling knowledge through this forum. I will, no doubt ask a few stupid questions along the way!
Happy to be here! And Grazie very much!
