This year’s Nove Colli will have an additional great protagonist, in fact Fabio Aru will also take his place on the grid who will put his innate climbing skills to the test with the Romagna climbs. The Knight of the Four Moors will bring his great wealth of experience to Romagna his very rich roll of honor: the Vuelta a España 2015, a stage at the Tour de France, three stages at the Giro d’Italia as well as two podiums in the general classification.
«I am always trained, I alternate sports, cycling, running, gym. Clearly the kilometers by bike are no longer the priority as they once were but even in winter I go out cycling two or three times a week. Now it’s more a training for passion than for performance, the Nove Colli participants with whom I will ride can rest assured”, explains Aru who will take part in the Nove Colli for the first time. «For me this year will be the first time, It will be a pleasure to discover this race, a new experience. I notice that there are always a lot of passionate amateurs, it’s a good thing that there are so many participants in events of this type. When you’re a professional you have so many commitments that you can’t fit participation in amateur Granfondos into your calendar, even though it would be important to take part. On a moral level they give a lot.
