Stephan has posted a some nice photos of him racing on a Gitane and getting ready for a group ride.

It got me thinking it'd be nice to see some photos of our Gitane's "out and about" so I took my camera with me on the ride this afternoon.

Post a photo of your Gitane where you ride.

That's a lot prettier than the suburbia I have to ride in daily. Really nice!

Very nice Nicolas. I think I need to schedule a European vacation and come ride some of those mountains with you.

You're welcome ! And as the col de Menté shows, I'm not tough competition... That's exactly what I was thinking when I took the pic : I had just spent 3 Weeks doing only Pyrénées climbs and that's when it occured to me : I'm not a climber !!!

Climbing overdose. It hurts.
