We often denounced how critical it to ride a bicycle in Pavia. Bikes could be the solution to many issues related to traffic and so on, but the few bike paths we have are mutually disconnected, dangerous and their maintenance is disastrous. Few days ago, riding to the new swimming pool close to the university, I noted that a kind of miracle was happening: grass was naturally growing from the asphalt of the bike path....
Update: today I observed that some maintenance to the "growing jungle" has been done. However the general situation of the bike paths here in Pavia doesn't change at all
