I toss an turn in my bed it's 11:40 pm 6 more hours for the my Century ahead , All I want is for my computer to reach 100 milles for that day. I have never done "Tour de Foothills" but it sounds fun. My Dove the 10 Speed steel univega which im passionate for to help me through, 60 miles into my ride the SAG mobile tells me to take a shorter route, that the winds ahead are 50 mph , he even offers me a ride , I look at him and say "NO" im fine . The detour comes up ahead Century left turn, Metric right , I took the left turn. 8:30 hours later misson accomplish i was the last one perhaps but my computer read "101.32" miles. Welcome back my pecorella , mom tells me you need to eat now. Dario, I love the way you put detail on all your tubes , every little brush of paint means something.

Dario, I cried when I saw your video today 27, August, 2010. "Of Steel" - http://www.rapha.cc/of-steel--trailer As I too had been diagnosed with Stage IV Mantel Cell Lymphoma, but now I have just finished my last fifth last round of chemo "R-CHOP" (does that sound familiar?). So I am an active, avid vintage bicycle collector, I love primarily the vintage stuff, 60's, 70's & 80's mostly Italian, French, American and Japanese. I have over 150 frames and bicycles in my home! I just wanted to say I hope you and I will conquer the Cancer, you, I believe will soon know, as you are approaching the five year mark. Well, according to the film lately, you haven't lost much weight! If you are ever in San Francisco, California, USA, please give me an E-mail anytime, and I'll treat you for a ride or whatever. Thank you, Tom M. Jue San Francisco, CA E-mail: fyrtom@yahoo.com

You are much loved! While I don't have a photo, I have a custom steel bike from John Caletti here in Santa Cruz. It is beautiful. Your bikes are beautiful. Bicycles enrich our lives, and your craft is immortal.

Ciao Dario, Su internet se ne leggono tante, io ho letto che il telaio GIORDANA che possiedo FORSE era stato fatto da te. Chissà se è vero... In cuor mio mi piace crederlo. Non so ad oggi quale sia il tuo stato di salute, ma ti auguro tutto il bene. Anzi mi piacerebbe che tu mi rispondessi: "Vaffanculo, è storia vecchia!!! Ora sto da leoni!". Ti abbraccio, e in bocca al lupo, Valentina

Valentina, TREVISO
