  1. And eat it, too:

    Available in Seattle and Portland.

    I spotted this at a coffee stop on this morning's ride. I was sorely
    tempted to ask if they had Shimano flavor, too.

    Maybe it isn't about bikes. Could just be a bellringer of a recipe.

    I read that "campagnolo," roughly translated, means "man from the
    country." It's a farmer's bread, I guess.

    Building up my latest acquisition: that Jacipini track frameset you
    have seen photographed on the abandoned track of Fornacette. So
    abandoned that the track lookes like a field, or rather a jungle.
    And, yes, Campagnolo means from the countryside. Not necessarily a
    man, to be politically correct with ladies, nor necessarily a human
    being.
    Just anything that is country style.

    Sounds like the Italian version of the French word "campagnard". Funny
    as I never made the connection. The Tullio part was in the way... In
    any case, it doesn't sound anywhere as glamorous as in the Italian.

    I guess my lieutenant governor can breathe a sigh of relief.

    Not to take this too literally but the "campagna" is the countryside
    with emphasis on rural. Likewise a "campagnolo" is one who is from
    such an area, a countryman, also meaning a fellow national in terms of
    whether he is a foreigner or from the speaker's country.

    M := campagnolo
    F := campagnola

    We never say campagnolo to mean from the same country, but yes from
    the countryside (i.e. rural area).
    There was a 4W car made by FIAT by the commercial name Campagnola, to
    mean that she could successfully take you on dirt muddy roads.

    Pretty much. It's a fairly nice crusty bread excellent for having with
    soup. My favorite is their kalamata olive bread, though for pure eating
    pleasure it's hard to beat their pear hazelnut bread.

    Crusty? You have to be a beaver to get through the crust on some of
    the loaves I have bought from the Grand Central bakery in Multnomah.
