Adam

From London, to Oxford, to North Carolina, to Boston and now finally to Firenze. I studied biochemistry at Uni, worked in drug discovery, and then opened a cheese shop, with a focus on real cheese & microbiology.

When I can, I ride my bike everywhere, and backpack in my spare moments.

Say no to cars and embrace two wheels, mass transit and your own two feet.

Tre Alpi

A big day in the Apuane Alpi. The first climb to San Pellegrino was BRUTAL. Probably the physically hardest climb I’ve done - similar to Mt Washinton in NH with an extra 18% for 1 km.
The other two climbs, Abetone and Radici, were tame by comparison.
Beautiful area to…
