It was a great weekend. My BF & I met up with a friend who lives in New Jersey for the winter but she spends May - October in Itlay as a ride guide for an American cycling holiday company. She's totally in love with Italy and speaks perfect Italian.

We also met up with a friend from LA who was there as an official photographer for cyclingnews.com. His name is Mitch Friedman - check out some of his pics on the CN website!
