what did you do on your training ride?

i bet you didn’t save the lives of 800 jewish folks:

Bartali Honoured For Saving Jews During The Holocaust | Cyclingnews.com

“Some medals are pinned to your soul, not your jacket”.

Holy shit.

What a brilliant quote!

I thought BRR needed to know about this…

BIG RING RIDING “GOOD IS SOMETHING YOU DO, NOT SOMETHING YOU TALK ABOUT. SOME MEDALS ARE PINNED TO YOUR SOUL, NOT TO YOUR JACKET.”

Whatever your political view Yad Vashem, is a testimony to something truly awful, but to discover this about the great Bartarli, a cyclist is inspirational.
I sadly have a great many ancestors listed as victims of the holocaust.
thanks so much for sharing
