Galen Maynard’s Endless Summer Entry
I’d like to enter this photo I took in Lucca Italy into your summer contest. I traveled to Munich for work this year, and on the way home I had the chance to visit Italy in late summer. The afternoon light was gorgeous, and obviously cycling is more integrated into daily life in many European cities. Everyone rides bikes for short errands and as a simple mode of daily transportation. I think this photo really evokes the joy of a late summer afternoon in a small Italian hill town. In Lucca, a bike is both a tool and a simple way to enjoy life.
—Thanks! Galen

What a beautiful photo!
This is a terrific photo! Well done, Galen.
lucca is such a beautiful place. any cyclist visiting italy should visit. it’s near Pisa, and the high ancient walls that surround this old city are now a multi-use path. cheap bike rentals if you don’t have one.
I also think this is a great photo. This young lady seems to have both the ecovelo and cycle chic thing going on.
