Dr. Giggles pounding up the hillLoaded up the Pantani-mobile last Saturday and headed east to meet up with Dr. Giggles and his lovely Wife. The trip was a long one and driving through the night was good training with the fast approaching Trans Iowa. 15 hours later we were cutting through Syracuse and heading for his house.
We stayed there for about 4 days and absolutely had a blast. Riding there is magical. Roads are well kept, shoulders are wide and the hills are endless. It was rather easy to get out of town and be in some really beautiful areas just 5 or 6 miles out of the downtown area. Lots of times I was riding in a 34x26 and out of the saddle. Exploded a couple of tubes from heating up the rims on the downhills.
We visited the zoo, the science museum and tried to cram in as much as possible since Bike Mechanics get very short vacations during the season. We also visited the beautiful campus of Syracuse University.
I posted some pictures on the flickr site on the sidebar.
best,
Ari
