Posted in cycling, obsessions, products, vintage by TdF on 19/01/2012

It was like an Epiphany for me to open the box. I never have had the pleasure and the honour to touch an original CINELLI Giro d’Italia 64 handlebar. It is not only an important part of the great history of the Italian”Grande Ciclismo”, but a perfect combination between industrial design and maniacal perfection for small details. Capolavoro! Only 20 pieces are available. Shop now >>>

josef bayer

Posted in cycling, people, products, vintage by TdF on 11/01/2012

The first time I ever saw a pair of JOSEF BAYER’s wheels was this summer at the Favorit Velodrome in Brno.  They were a 3-spoke and a disc wheel.  They were all black and aggressive looking, but they had a small green symbol on them, very speedy, very romantic.  They made a strong impression on me and I asked the man responsible for the Velodrome about them.  He replied by telling me about a certain JOSEF BAYER, builder of fantastic rims from the south of Moravia, but beyond that he knew little. The more I thought about it the more I realised that I needed to find this Mr. JOSEF BAYER, even if nobody knew how to help me, nobody had an address or contact.

My internet research also yielded no results.  Then one day I decided to ask for some information from the TUFO brand, they could have known him, I reasoned, their base was in the south of the Czech Republic and perhaps some old mechanic there would remember a Mr. JOSEF BAYER. My decision was a lucky one, that very morning Mr. BAYER had visited them and I was able, finally, to get his email address.

I wrote to him immediately, telling him that I would very much like to meet him, that he must certainly be a very interesting person and that a trip to see him would be worth my while.

After about a week I received his response and we fixed a meeting for mid-December.

2011 in review

Posted in cycling, day off, essentials, events, food, obsessions, people, products, recovery, vintage by TdF on 04/01/2012

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

Madison Square Garden can seat 20,000 people for a concert. This blog was viewed about 69,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Madison Square Garden, it would take about 3 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

So fair to be seen.

and to you your wassail too;

And God bless you.

superb

Posted in cycling, products, vintage by TdF on 21/11/2011

It is always a great pleasure to show beautiful shops like SUPERB BICYCLE. A perfect mix of ambience, culture, design, art and “puro ciclismo”. The Vintage collection of old sexy Italian frames and bicycles is really awesome. Jason did a great job. Next time you find yourself in the Boston area and looking for the finest  Cinelli and Colnago line, stop by their shop you will be happy you did.
