The Day After The Night Before.

Damn you, Internet.

I'm guessing I was a little tired and emotional after watching the Pantani film last night [link]. I'm also guessing the bottle of Chianti Rose contributed. Normally my fantastical late night meanderings are soon forgotten, but unfortunately, as my wife pointed out this morning, I made the mistake of committing my thoughts to the blogosphere last night. My wife believes I have made a promise not only to her but to the world and have therefore made a commitment I cannot somehow escape from this morning.

Step one initially seemed pretty straightforward - find a 1998 Bianchi frame and components in order to build an accurate replica of one of Pantani's TdF winning bikes. After some lightweight initial investigation things may not quite be so straightforward.

In order to provide some pictoral interest to this blog I will be peppering it with some of my own photos, most of which will have some degree of cycling interest. Please feel free to comment or correct any errors. Hopefully this will sustain any interest while I carry out some more research into this damn Bianchi bike used by Pantani.
