And very likely my last one. Giving my bicycles this Italian title with its female gender dates back to my youth when I was a keen cyclist taking part in road races. I had a number of racing bikes, but the Italian ones (Cinelli, Basso Loto) were always special. Now, I am using an ordinary mountain bike - but look at the tyre! Fast and slick. Another survivor from the past.

For 120 pictures in 2020 #60 "I remember", this is a bicycle I bought four or five years ago to get more exercise. Seeing it makes me remember how much I rode when I was a teenager (and younger), and how much I don't ride now, even though I really should. For anyone wondering, that is just my garden shed, and yes, the grass needs mowing even though it's only been four days.

"Always drink upstream from the herd."

"Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment."

"Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in."

"If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around."

"Live simply, love generously , care deeply, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God."

"Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you."

Have a great weekend everyone.

I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike.

Bicycle Race (Remastered 2011)

Queen

Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride my bike

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride it where I like

You say black, I say white

You say bark, I say bite

You say shark, I say hey man

Jaws was never my scene

And I don't like Star Wars

You say Rolls, I say Royce

You say God give me a choice

You say Lord, I say Christ

I don't believe in Peter Pan

Frankenstein or Superman

All I wanna do is

Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride my bike

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle, races are coming your way

So forget all your duties, oh yeah

Fat bottomed girls, they'll be riding today

So look out for those beauties, oh yeah

On your marks, get set, go

Bicycle race, bicycle race, bicycle race

Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

(I want a) bicycle race

You say coke, I say 'caine

You say John, I say Wayne

Hot dog, I say cool it man

I don't wanna be the President of America

You say smile, I say cheese

Cartier, I say please

Income tax, I say Jesus

I don't wanna be a candidate

For Vietnam or Watergate

'Cause all I want to do is

Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle (c'mon), bicycle

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride my bike

I want to ride my bicycle

I want to ride it where I like
