Riding local, riding abroad. Doesn't matter. "One less car" bike commuting and "Bikes Belong" advocacy, plus "I ride solo" bicycle travel. Racing is fun, but there are so many equally great reasons to ride.

Holy Thursday street procession
Not something you see every day. Tonight's passeggiata has extra oomph. The band is playing dirges, there are 2 guys dressed as Roman soldiers, and the hooded people are holding burning incense or swinging clanging clacking noisemakers. I haven't heard this sound for almost 40 years, yet I remembered it immediately, from the Good Friday service when I was a child. Sicily continues to fascinate.
