BMW owners ride bikes?
Wow, shocked to find some road cyclists here. My wife and I used to race in NYC area and part of early morning Central Park training rides but now in Nashville area. I'm still riding though much more infrequently and wife's now more into yoga. Our idea of a vacation used to be riding across southern France tackling Pyrenees TdF climbs.
My bucket list was/still is doing an ED pick-up and heading down to Tuscany with bikes but not able to leave for extended vacation with a couple of elderly dogs at home, so just picked up an F36 via PCD.
When planning for riding in Italy always found it amusing to read of BMW car enthusiasts on forums like this complaining about crazy cyclists on climb like the Stelvio while on the bike forums they ranted about gas guzzling jerks taking cars up mountains. Lot more fun on a bike but right now the only way I'll go back on Mt Ventoux via a bimmer unless I get back to racing weight.
