Training in Toronto


I'm meant to be in training for the upcoming cycle ride Le Havre-St Nazaire in June. I took my 1972 Batavus Batafold bicycle for a spin, about 15 miles. The Batavus features a Sachs Torpedo Duomatic 2-speed kickshift hub gear - makes you work a bit harder.  Here I am outside Curbside Cycle - notice the shopper-style bike in the window.
