Two men are in the center, one is shown looking at a tablet, the other is talking in front of a video camera.

We had our say, ironically but professionally, together with various guests such as:
DAVIDE PALAZZARI, Italian DH 2020 champion
SIMONE MEDICI, DH Elite rider
GIACOMO FANTONI, Italino BMX champion 2019

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').
