A chronicle of my cycling adventures in different countries around the world. Cycling in Portugal – Serra da Lousã and Schist villages. Queen of El Angliru →. Cycling in Portugal – Climb to Senhora da Graça. December 22, 2012. Never before had I seen a climb like this one. After what Martin had told us, I was curious about the climb to Senhora da Graça. And when I, with the rare fortune of good, fast, free wifi, checked out the Strava segment. Maybe my goal and expectations had been too high? Ountain by ...

Lagos de Covadonga – Picos de Europa | Bicycle Travels
https://bicycletravels.wordpress.com/2013/02/24/lagos-de-covadonga-picos-de-europa
A chronicle of my cycling adventures in different countries around the world. O’Reilly’s and Lamington National Park. Lagos de Covadonga – Picos de Europa. February 24, 2013. The day after L’Angliru we climbed the road to the lakes of Covadonga. I was more keen than ever to climb steep roads. I was hoping, Lago the Covadonga would be as steep as L’Angliru. And I wasn’t disappointed on that part. And while I was still wondering when the challenge would start, we turned around a corner, a rock face and a c...

Queen of El Angliru | Bicycle Travels

A chronicle of my cycling adventures in different countries around the world. Cycling in Portugal – Climb to Senhora da Graça. O’Reilly’s and Lamington National Park →. Queen of El Angliru. January 28, 2013. Alto de L’Angliru is was added to the Vuelta a España in 1999 as Spain’s answer to Mortirolo and Zoncolan. It holds a similar mythical status as the famous Italian climbs. And what a beautiful warm up this ride was! Only for El Angliru a climb can be a warm-up to the climb! Did Alberto catch me saying.

Cycling in Portugal – Serra da Lousã and Schist villages. December 16, 2012. Should I first tell you about our amazing rides in the Serra da Lousã, or about the Aldeias do Xisto? Language barrier aside, I had heard about Schist villages many years ago, probably in school. But it took me a while till it clicked. Coimbra i...

n + 1 | Fascination Bicycle

Just hiking up to the start line appears to be an accomplishment in itself… →. March 9, 2013 · 12:36 pm. The ideal number of bikes to have is n 1 with “n” the number of bikes you currently own. Truth is, I went n – 1 a couple of weeks ago. I sold my old mountain bike. It was a case of wanting to hit the trails but the good old trusty Mango Giant wasn’t cutting it anymore. But at least I’m now back to n – 1 1 = n. And “n” in my case is four! Tagged as 29er mountainbike. Hard tail mountain bike. I’m ...

O’Reilly’s and Lamington National Park. N 1 →. March 2, 2013 · 8:52 am. Ever since I bought my Canyon, the Time Edge has only seen 1260km of road (vs 10,590km that I rode the Canyon and a few hundred kilometres on the Fixie). That’s fairly normal. The Powertap wheels are heavy and make the Time handle like a tank. But downloading the data and seeing the power numbers is still fun, even though I’m not training. Old habits die hard. But despite all this, I’m not ready to part with the Time Edge. Creating t...

Minimum Safe Passing Distance Petition | Fascination Bicycle

This time last year…. May 10, 2013 · 10:49 am. Minimum Safe Passing Distance Petition. The metallic blue Subaru swooshed pass me with only centimetres to spare. I was only 5km away from home and was shaken. The tuned car had a big WRX sticker and tinted windows. While this little true story illustrates that not every close passing car is driven by a hooning or malicious driver – even if the type of car initially suggests that – it is an every day reality that if a motorist overtakes another r...Http:/ ww...
