SITE MANAGER
Proudly born in Ascoli Piceno in 1968, a certified scout leader since the age of 11, the bicycle has become the place for profound thoughts and the most important decisions. I've been working in cycling since 1992, when I began my career in journalism on the pages of Bicisport. A professional since 1996, I've covered two Olympics and, from champion to champion, my seasons have spanned the Classics and the Giro, the Tour, the Vuelta, and the World Championships. I've always followed youth cycling and cultivated a love for writing and photography.
