Anyone recommend any good site for background pictures for my desktop? Preferably cycling related and SFW.

There's the Liz Hatch Maxim shoot photos floating around the interweb. She's a SWF I think.

Zank on my laptop at home - Sachs on my PC at work. Occasionally I get crazy and reverse the two

How about this (http://www.serotta.com/road/index.html) Web site. They have some cool bikes, I hear, and cool wallpaper. Really. Like this (http://www.serotta.com/meivici/wallpaper.html) one.

Got a new one. I actually prefer Umbria to Toscana (although we are talking different shades of incredible here). The food, with black truffles and porcini mushrooms aplanty, is one very good reason but lots of hilltop towns and scenery like this is another.

point him to some of your shots. Some good stuff there! Search "BBD photos" or some such . . .

He probably uses the digital cards these days, but if you can get your hands on one of those, we can share, and I'll make the evidence disappear :cool:

Here's what's on my computer. Completely lost somewhere in the Pyrenees on the way back to the hotel after riding up Tourmelet in a hail storm then watching Lance lose to Basso at La Mongie. My greatest day on a bike ever. Great story about getting home too, but it's too long for here.

Not cycling related (although those are the Alps, so I guess that's sort of cycling related), but too good not to share. This is on my work computer. Every now and then you have one of those days where you can't believe you are getting paid to do this. This was one of those days.
Saab, this one's for you.
