Really. I rest my case.

Goes to showing that the humble bike is the best way to observe everything and get around quickly. Isn’t it an ideal combination for transport. Now who says, biking is impractical. And note, he is not riding a whiz-bang ultra light weight, carbon fibre, tri-spec bike. I am sure he can afford one – but he does not us it because it would not get the work done.

I am guessing Alonso is taking a close look at the track, trying to determine racing lines, alternate options to overtake, calculate the apex of the chicane, looking for bumps and unevenness in the track etc… It is amazing that the fastest drivers rely on first hand info gathered from bike trips around the circuit. I hear most drivers do this at all circuits. Cool eh.

I bought a couple of limited edition ”Venice Chronicles” direct from author and am eagerly awaiting the special Yoga-Enrico Book plates. They are almost done as he says. Cool…

Now I need to think of a place to hang on my walls.
