Fantastic event perfectly organized by Lugagnano Off Road and Marco Aurelio Fontana. The race pack was a scream and included: a MrWolf cup, Gaerne socks, Ethic Sports buff, Velomann computer and could not miss the Red Bull can, also present at the final refreshment served hot as a 'potion' taken from an Asterix-style aluminum pot. ! What the participants appreciated the most was the spirit of the Fingers Cross: there was no shortage of "shotguns" but they were held in check by a very specific regulation ... to remove any doubts, here it is:
Fingers Cross 2017 Regulations
1. The first to arrive wins but if he has no style he doesn't really win;
2. You are all welcome apart from Gioele Bertolini whom I take this opportunity to greet;
3. It is worth the whole piece but street drops are welcome;
4. It is necessary to be correct in the competition with all the participants except friends and especially relatives;
5. Low gear uphill, always at low speed;
6. Downhill all the holy helpers;
7. Please avoid heating the rollers, the noise causes unnecessary tension;
8. What happens in the Melesi remains in the Melesi. Even today there are pajero fenders and the like;
9. The false self-certification for the starting grid can be prosecuted (ed, the starting grids were pre-established by the participants based on the number of days of weekly training: 1/7, 2/7, 3/7 etc);
10. Foot out, flat out.
PS: Thanks to Fincato23, a shop in the center of Verona, who allowed us to have fun too with a flaming cyclocross Cannondale Caadx!
