Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
I live in San Francisco. Here you can find a bike route to almost everywhere. Go downtown, cross the Golden Gate, around the bay...
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
I am from Italy and I love bike travels, so I’ve seen a lot of cities, but my favorite is San Francisco.
It is not a very big city, it’s easy to cross (well, there are “a few” hills), and you can go from the beach to the mountains, from the Bay Area to the sequoia woods in just one day. The weather is also perfect, never too hot, never too cold. What more could you want?
Why do you love riding in the city?
Because it is a little adventure every day, because there is always something on the road that takes your mind far away from life’s problems.
Or just say whatever you want about riding in the city… Poetry anyone?
I love the bike as a mode of transportation in life, I don’t have a car, just the bike. It is fun when I say, “I can come, but I need two days to get there!” Live the life on wheels, live slowly.
