I’m looking for maps and decent guidebooks or websites that can help me plan my trip to Italy.
I’ll be flying to Palermo on May 8th. From Palermo I intend to make my way up north to Venice, stopping in Florence and Rome on the way.
I’ll be travelling with tent, sleeping bag, cooking stove and a bicycle. For longer distances I intend to take the train, but for my way to and from the camping sites I intend to use my bike.

I’m too embarrassed to ask for trainer wheels & trainer help b/c, obviously, I don’t want to feel embarrassed. Tips on how to maintain balance and pedal properly?

I know semis have pulled more than two trailers at a time. I’m asking if the same is possible for a bicycle (with an assistance motor or not). And if so, would it have any potential applications?

The bicycle seems like the ideal vehicle for transportation over short distances. Most people commute less than 10 miles each way to work. Plus, a lot of weekend errands are just driving around from one parking lot to another. The bicycle seems like the solution to a lot of problems- global warming, high gas prices and fat, out of shape people.

I’m looking to buy a new bicycle, i think i’m going to get a cannondale and i’ve been researching frames and my options are aluminum, carbon, or alloy. It will be a road bike and everywhere i read i find warnings saying how fragile these bikes are, particularly the carbon and aluminum, that if the drop or anything it might dent or crack. I don’t race a whole lot but i want something that i can have for a while but will also be very comfortable riding for long periods of time. Does anyone have good advice or experience with these frames and can tell me if these are huge factors that I should worry about or are the warnings just because it has happened a few times.
