Folha is the equivalent of the Times or Telegraph over here:

I don't think I'll be joining their Brazilian rides though.

On a slightly different track, I had an afternoon coffee with my friend from Leeds, and he had a GT 3.0 made up into quite a nice road bike. We went to the bike shop but it was closed, so at least I now know I have an OK bike shop not too far from where I live. It will still be a few months before I am up and riding though, but one of our trips may be Sao Paulo to Santos, as there is an old road through rainforest (I think that that is what it is) to get there.

Funny that. I live not 5 miles from Portmouth and I had no idea. Shame, would've loved to dangle me old chap off the saddle for a bit

Well I know this thread is useless without pics, so for anyone wanting to know about the Brazilian rides : )

Note how they say that the Brazilians even braved a cold night of 22 degrees 🙂

I'm amazed they were able to show that gorgeous topless blond riding a square wheeled unicycle
