The days flew by. They are packed and every day there are a thousand things to organize, make decisions and think about details.
My 2027 world tour starts long before departure. And one of the first tasks is to bring together the people who will accompany me in the preparations for this great adventure.
Today we all met via video call: Simone, Veronica, Marco, Federica, Nicola, Roberto, Sorrento and Filippo.
Each of them will have a specific task, an important piece of the puzzle of this huge whole. Simone will then coordinate and put everything together and make sure every activity is organized around my training sessions.
Because the preparation for a world record consists not only of hard cycling. It’s about creating a balance between physical preparation, regeneration, nutrition, mental strength, organization and a thousand other aspects that often go unnoticed from the outside.
During the conversation I paused for a moment to look at all the faces on the screen.
What a wonderful feeling to see so many people in me and this project!
I’ll pedal, but there’s a small part of your work behind every kilometer.
And I am curious to discover how much these differences can make a mark on the roads of the world.
