70 athletes at the start with 7 Italians at the start: Specia, Cortinovis, Tormena, Zanga, Plankensteiner, Challancin and Graf. As expected, Line Burquier (Canyon CLLCTV Collective) dominates the test closing in 1 hour 7 minutes and 48 seconds. Second place for Puck Pieterse and third Sofie Pedersen.


The second stage of the Under23 World Cup which took place in Albstadt (Germany) gave another podium to the Wilier Triestina - Pirelli Factory Team thanks to Giada Specia who finished his test in 5th place.

For the young athlete it was a comeback race after a not brilliant start, but with intelligence and stubbornness she managed to climb up to fifth position, conquering another good result after the third place in Brazil.

“I struggled a bit in the first laps, also because the race pace was very high right from the start. I didn't have the leg to stay with the very first, but I picked up my pace and managed the race well and finished the test in fifth position, a result that leaves me satisfied anyway.". Giada Specia.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
