Looking at these pictures :
- how much I miss racing
- how bad I want to ride through these mountains in the backgrounds and pay a visit to Mugello myself
- how beautiful it is to see a lone rider fighting against the clock
- how crazy these guys are, coming so hard into the first corner
- how brilliant a photographer Scott Jones is
Thanks a lot ;-)
