[eng] Giro d’Italia #specialjerseyaward: Fausto Masnada

The third Castelli jersey, could only be dedicated to Fausto Coppi for celebrating the stages around Novi Ligure and Pinerolo. Two evocative stages of discovering the places of the Campionissimo life and career. It’s a gloomy day in Novi Ligure. June arrived 10 days ago but it seems like fall has intruded, beating summer to the punch. It’s raining so hard that the sound of the drops pounding against the windows fills the houses: to listen to the radio you have to maintain a scrupulous silence. You search for the jerky signal of the broadcast from the 32nd Giro d’Italia. A clear voice emerges from the device, breaks through the clouds and bursts into the room: “One man alone in the lead. His jersey is sky blue and white. His name is Fausto Coppi.” In Novi everyone knows that voice and that name because both have an intimate connection to that place. Mario Ferretti, a journalist who was born in Novi Ligure but became famous in Rome, articulates the syllables clearly to update the radio listeners on the exploits of Fausto Coppi, who was a native of Castellania but called Novi Ligure home, on the stage from Cuneo to Pinerolo. ...

Behind the scenes with Gianni Moscon

Living less than two hours from our headquarters, Gianni Moscon is a familiar face in the office and in the local cycling community in the Veneto and Trentino regions. In our work with the pros, we often have the opportunity to meet some amazing people who share our passion. Sometimes the person behind the sunglasses is different than you might expect. The 24-year-old Team Sky rider from Val di Non weathered a big storm when he was ejected from the Tour de France last year and suspended for five weeks after being seen taking a swing at Fortuneo-Samsic’s Elie Gesbert during stage 15. We’re not ignoring what people think, but we want to provide more insight into the real Gianni Moscon in this article and video. MEET THE MAN BEHIND THE SUNGLASSES On a cold November day, we sat down with Moscon at the family farm in Livo, Trentino, for a chat about his rapid rise in the pro ranks, Team Sky, his passion for cycling, his first pedal strokes and growing up as an apple farmer. The hugely gifted 24-year-old is considered one of the biggest talents in the sport. He finished fifth in his second attempt ...
