Giacomo Dodino is racing the Trans Madeira, a reference stage race in terms of enduro stage race (this year is the sixth edition), but here is the disaster: all the material loaded in the hold, including the bike, did not arrive in Madeira (of course we hope for a delay of a few days as often happens).

Trans Madeira

From the site of MTB-Tech, where Giacomo is publishing his story, tells everything in detail. The race takes place over 5 days for a total of 30 special stages, over 200 km of race and 15000m of negative altitude difference. An event that develops throughout the island of Madeira.

"GThanks to the help of the organizers who have taken steps to contact all the bike shops on the island and the competitors themselves who have lent me what they had in reserve ... and I need stuff ... I was able to find a bike (one of those in rental), clothing, helmet, gloves, knee pads, shoes, pedals. But also panties and socks ... yes, when you are left with a backpack and with only what you have on it is like that!"

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').
