It is with immense pride and satisfaction that we present you the first Italian circuit of Pump Track 2022.
The project, after a lot of work, is finally a reality.
Riccardo Fadda and Sandro Baldissarri, have joined their forces and with the direct collaboration of Velosolutions, they have managed to realize a project that lay in the drawer, but that the known events related to Covid have not made it possible.
Recognized by the FCI
This project has received the official recognition of the Italian Cycling Federation, as the Pump Tack specialty is officially recognized by the UCI and the races will respect the national regulations of the FCI specialty.
Riccardo and Sandro, thanks to their experience as organizers of the 2019-2021 Italian editions of the Red Bull UCI Pump Track World Championships qualifier, and other cycling-related events, thanks also to the greater number of tracks in Italy, realized that the moment was ripe.
A new format in Italy
As pioneers of Italian Pumptrack Championships, we feel proud and motivated in carrying out a new, fresh movement, aimed at all ages, which will be able to make its way into the Italian cycling scene, innovating and proposing a format that was not there, but that together we can create and improve.
An experience dedicated to competition with a healthy sporting spirit to let athletes experience the pure fun of the pump track.
