I'll ride Campy in Italy again next summer, it's all good.
Dave,
Which company are you going with? We went with Ciclismo Classico this summer and are doing the same next summer. One reason I like them is they furnish Italian bikes with Italian parts. Fitting if you are going to ride in Italy. Ciclismo runs a great tour. Highly recommended!

We're not fond of tours, we typically arrange our own travel and accomodations. We stayed at the Belvedere Hotel in Riccione this last May. It's on the east coast of Italy in the Rimini region and a hotbed of cycling. The Belvedere is an Italian bike hotel, catering to cyclists. They have their own bikes (DeRosa) daily rides of different lengths and difficulties and some of the very best food I had in Italy. It's a half block from the beach with it's own spa and wellness center, it has staff bike mechanics, tour leaders and did I mention the food? ( ) We like it so well that we've booked our 2008 cycling vacation there again. A terrific place. If you'd like more info, e-mail me ( davetspokane1@comcast.net )
