I am going to L’Eroica next weekend to do some work for Le Coq Sportif. I am riding the 74km route mostly on white gravel roads and I have a bike there waiting for me. I wonder what it will be? The De Rosa above should suffice.
My excitement is becoming almost unbearable. More info on my travels to this weekend’s L’Eroica to come.

Just stumbled upon your site, very nice, love the logotype.
Looking at the bikes on your site you won’t be disappointed with the L’eroica, make sure you get to Gaiole on the Saturday for the bike jumble and pre race party, only don’t drink too much Chianti, there is always plenty available at the food stops on the Sunday.
We’re doing the 135km for the second time, maybe even the 205km if we are feeling foolish on the day. You get to see most of the really vintage stuff on the 75km routes though and it’s bloody cold at 6am.
Here’s a few pictures from last year http://www.flickr.com/photos/21347563@N08/sets/72157622488205573/
Maybe see you there, I’ll be on my ’78 Gios Super Record.
