Cleaning brings back memories

Waked up this morning positive I would clean up my flat and I did. Laundry, washed the floors, vacuum cleaner, bathroom and bathtub, kitchen. And while cleaning the living room these pics popped out from a box. Analog takes shot with my Praktica I - shame on me - use so little. Pics of when I had just finished my first, beloved fixed gear. At the time when Koper Toni got me into this fascination and beauty of become one with the bike. At the time when my first thought was to build one for the love of my life. At the time when I would put my bike on the roof of my car, drive from the hills to town, park the car and roam the city with my first fixed gear. At the time when we would play bike polo. Me and Giacomo and Annalisa and Andrea. No one was riding fixies then, not that it makes any difference or makes us more important or special.

Just a great memory when I look at these.
