  • Good grief--urban downhill and where is this?

    A friend of mine sent this video to me and I opened it
    not expecting much but was pretty impressed with what I saw.

    With all the downhill and stairs I'm guessing this is in
    Italy somewhere.

    Yikes!
    I could not do that. And I don't want to either.

    Meanwhile, on a four block downhill ending with a stop sign
    at a heavy traffic major arterial, headphones in and
    studiously inspecting her telephone screen...
