The second FantaCycling meeting has also passed and today, on the road that is starting to get wet with the autumn coolness, the emotions experienced on an unforgettable day remain.

First of all we must say thank you to you, to our community that grows day after day and unites in an ever bigger embrace . There are no words to describe the enthusiasm and passion we saw in your eyes, in the many messages we received, in the brilliant and genuine smiles displayed even during moments of effort uphill.

A climb that, perhaps we have told you a few times, we love madly and which, in a certain sense, gave rise to everything.

So, starting from the Bike Village of San Giuliano Terme , we climbed Monte Serra from the Calci side, the one that is covered in the Giro di Toscana .  

There were almost a hundred of us and all of us managed to reach the legendary antennas, concluding the climb.

In addition to our entire team, with Fede, the Mullah, Lorenzo Lucon, the Berta , there was the legendary Giovanni Visconti , now a great friend of Fantacycling who pedaled with the enthusiasts without sparing himself.

The other presence that moved everyone present (and especially the Mullah) was that of Riccardo Riccò . The “cobra” (as he is nicknamed), whose exploits and vicissitudes we know, put himself to the test by accepting our invitation with enthusiasm. We found a boy who still loves cycling and knows how to appreciate its most genuine aspects, without thinking about the past, but living in the present.

The day ended with a dinner for all enthusiasts (again at the Bike Village) and with a special edition of the Fantacycling lounge . The special guest was Riccò himself, who gave us anecdotes and laughter, with questions from Fede and Lorenzo Lucon, and a real declaration of love from the Mullah.

A special thanks to the Bike Village of San Giuliano Terme (Pisa), a super structure for all cycling enthusiasts who welcomed us in a great way. Thanks also to our sponsors Cicli Drali, Pissei, Named Sport and Tacchettee who supported us in the organization of the event.

See you next year , with the commitment on our part to give you an ever more beautiful event, but with the same joy of being together and sharing the passion for cycling.
