  • Miguel and Ricardo

    Two guys from Spain who are cycling through the Netherlands an Belgium. They surfed our couch on their way from Rotterdam to Bruges and Gent. They didn’t know of the couchsurfing project !

  • Good old cycling times.

    When I first saw these videos, I had to laugh ! They show the British bicycle culture as it was way back in 1955. If you’re too old to die young, then you’ll go back in memory when seeing these two vid’s ……… Nowadays there are a lot of car-drivers in England who just hate…

  • Dave Zabriski out of the Giro Italia !

    I like Zabriski just for the fact he wears a mustache ! He fell during the second day in the Giro and had to be treated in a hospital. Hope he gets over it before the TdF starts …….
