"...if you want a poorly made frame with bad paint, buy French..."

Thankfully, I fell in love with this bike before I knew that old quote. Hoping I can keep the whole thing operational for a long time. Good to know retro parts have come back in style more recently!

Escape Collective reported that Skoda had a marketing company do a redesign for them as a company and they changed the shade of green. That change then unfortunately carried over to the Tour...

Shout-out to Escape Collective and all the great (and sometimes silly) reporting they do. Not as in depth as something like Lanterne Rouge, but I think they paint a more complete picture of the race and it's surroundings.
