Just wondering if there is demand for a subforum in the Italy section for a SICILY filter?
I for one would think it to be useful - if only to allow people to quickly identify who is on the same island.
Any chance?
Also - if you are in Sicily, would you like to post your location it might help me or others get feel for who is where, thanks
Kenny - Acitrezza - (6ks North of Catania on the coast)
thanks

I just figured that there are bound to be enough people in Sicily to have its own sub section?
?
Just as it is handy to go into EUROPE / ITALY it would also be handy to be able to also go straight to a Sicily section also
Mind you with 3 people perhaps not

Well I'm here too (Siracusa) so that's 4! and this is a very different place from the rest of Italy. However all the formalities and hassle are the same as in the rest of the country.

4 with one on the way it appears
I expected a lot more to be honest, I was expecting a dozen at least within an hour of Catania, lets face it most of the island is within 1 hour of Catania if you obey the apparent speed limit of 200kph

@200kph most of the island is within 125miles of Catania
I was thinking along the lines of
Messina
Syracusa
Enna
All pretty much 1 hour drive to Catania
Palermo and of course Trapani, well no but the island is pretty small and its easy to get a long way fast if you want to.
There are surely people in Palermo too?

Hi, I'm in Sciacca, 50mins west of Agrigento, I'd like to have a forum for us in Sicily.

The reason I posted this thread is because I was previously looking to find a like minded soul who might be interested in cycling DOWN Etna.
I thought, this would be a lot easier if there was an established Sicily section.
Rather than have a single thread ramble on and on, how might we get a Sicily section?
I mean MALTA has a section!
Is it worth it?
I think it would be handy, esp for a new member considering Sicily to find a section on the best part of Italy!
