Abstract: I describe a bi-connection formalism of General relativity based on the dual role of the Weitzenböck connection defining the parallelism at a distance and the concomitant Levi-Civita connection derived from the Riemannian metric. A more explicit tensor writing of the geodesic and loxodromic equations clarifies their joint meaning.
