We went to the Factor store in Paris and the Pinarello store in London, but the loveliest by far was at a Christmas Market, in Paris. New life given to old bikes and happy smiles all around.

So, uh, did you know you can ride the Hub Trail on a trainer? Anyone tried it? Just did it and it's interesting. It's on an app called Kinomap, which is kind of a Zwift alternative that I have been trying out. The routes are GPS-synced videos uploaded by users. My thoughts . . . - You start off at the Bushplane Museum and do the route counterclockwise, which is how it should be done (IMHO!) - The difficulty is a little light. I boosted the

Fat biking pro tip: No matter how excited you may be to try out your new studded tires, if you ride flat pedals in the winter, you should install them before you drag your bike all the way out to Hiawatha and then have to drive back home and put them on and then drive all the way back to the trails and then only have time to get in 3.42km of riding before you have to load up your bike and go back home. Don't ask me how I know this. The tires

Pinarello Time Trial bike: Of course, what I was really interested in were the rippled front facing elements, along the front of seat tube and seat post, first used on their Hour Record track bike. The undulated surface disturbs the airflow at those points, reducing the aero drag of the machine, just like modern day 'dimples' on cycling jerseys, etc. Also note the bar extensions are mounted very high and angled upwards, creating a 'praying

Pinarello Time Trial bike, for races against the clock.

A stage winning Tour de France Bike: Leaning against the wall in the London Pinarello Store's workshop, was a lovely looking Pinarello F, in Team INEOS Grenadiers livery. Upon closer examination, I see Tom Pidcock's name on the top tube and had to ask, is this what I think it is....oh yes, it is only one of the three in existence he used at Le Tour. So many many minutes later, after looking at it from fork, to rear derailleur, sadlle, to

Holding Tom's bike. (6.9 kilos BTW)

PINARELLO STORE LONDON: We just returned home at 3AM this morning, so I haven't had a chance to even download all my photos from my cameras, let alone even look at more than 5% of them. (Everything I have posted in the past few weeks were from my phone, so those don't count). However, since there were only a few cycling related shots, I thought I would post these first. The Pinarello Store in London, is a candy store for the eyes. It

I particularily liked this colour-way, on an F model. (gold, bronze and matte black)

A textbook response to an urban planning challenge, that created a utopian city. Luxembourg... Question: How do you curb traffic congestion ? Answer: By providing stellar pedestrian, cycling and public transportation .... Not ripping out cycle lanes ! We were there for 4 1/2 days, and in a city of 650,000 we never saw a single traffic jam, but the eye opening part was how this was achieved. As previously mentioned, it was making public

Hello again everyone. This is the third entry in my series of bikes that I built. This time I'll be showcasing an Apollo Gran Sport that I brought back (close) to what it originally was. When I received the bike, someone had converted it to a single speed fixie (I know you would have liked it Andre). I also received a "bag of parts" at around the same time, which turned out to be an almost complete Shimano 600 groupo of the Arabesque generation.

Here's another photo from the trip in 1994. My bike (in the middle) and my two friends' bikes.
