Mountain bike

I am a passionate cyclist.

When I was a child I used to spend summer holidays in a hilly region in the north of Italy where a mountain bike competition was held every summer. That day was the most exciting of the summer for me. I used to admire competitors while they climbed steep and slippery ascents and then descended into technical short tracks in the middle of a forest. My dream was to be able to be as good as them one day. That's where my passion started.

From 2005 to 2009 I joined a mountain bike team and attended several competitions in Italy with discreet results. During the following years I enjoyed more relaxing Sunday strolls with friends.

In 2018 I started to learn bike trial, a discipline that trains equilibrium and agility skills and can also be practiced if you don't have mountains close to where you live.

Since 2020 I started mountain biking again, and I recently joined a local club for weekly rides.
