The appointment with arrives punctually as every year the City of Brescia trophy by Guizzimemorial Rino Fiori and Emilio Volpi, Bruno Boni and many other friends who supported this glorious race capable of fascinating with a unique formula: it runs at night under the light of street lamps, it runs in the center of a city bringing cycling where it is not always known and appreciated. Let’s not forget the technical aspect of this race once declined for amateurs, today in a more fluid cycling, also open to professionals and semi-professionals.
Despite its brevity, only 121 kilometers, puts on the table the 21 ascents of the Castle of Brescia in a relatively short course at each lap that allows little respite, between a short climb but repeated several times and a tortuous and very fast descent. Add to that the sultry climate and we have a nice mix of difficulties. It is a reason why observers from all over Italy and the world have always come to follow this race to see the youngsters at work, especially the Under 23s who may not win, but stand out for a possible promotion to a category. Also reporting on the race Teletutto screens with live TV of the salient phases starting at 9.30 pm. At the microphones Silvano Rodella, Morris Gazzoli and Paolo Venturini.
The most popular Brescian
Among the young people who arouse curiosity there is the first year Under, Davide Donati from Brescia of Biesse Carrera who missed the Italian appointment (time trial and road) because he was busy with the final exams. This season, his first as an under 23, he came close to success at San Geo Cupat the Giro del Belvedere while he triumphed at the Liberazione. However, let’s not put too much pressure on the boy from Monticelli who boasts a past as a biker also because he has been able to train little due to his studies.
From favorites
Another interesting Brescian is Riccardo Parani who runs with Trevigiani energiapura able to field the entire podium of last year: Guzzo, Zurlo and Zamperini this year adorned with the tricolor title just won.
