Thought this was nice. Not about mechanical doping or $6K bikes.

Great. You might also consider a trip to the Gino Bartali Museum, just outside Florence.

I like disc brakes and like newer bikes wired or wireless without all those cables and yet I still love the old look, as this Colnago from the story represents very well. What a cool place.

I very seriously doubt I'll ever make it there, but that shop looks awesome.
