SMP shines in the snow of Asiago!

Riders depart in the snow

It was the very surreal scenery, the unique and suggestive one and in the magic context as well.

The 7^th trial of the 31^st Triveneto Trophy was wanted and organized by the consultant of the SMP Saddles Enrico Polo, and supported by the Paduan company of Franco and Maurizio Schiavon brothers.

At Asiago (Vicenza), when the ground is white with snow you will usually find that Alpine or Nordic skiing is practiced there.This time, thanks to the stage of Triveneto Trophy, the bicycles turned out to be the unusual protagonists.

Evan for specialists it wasn’t at all easy to proceed with prudence and to control the bicycles while cycling on the spectacular course of Millepini Park, which was the host to the Giro d’Italia of cyclocross two years ago, with half meter of snow and purely white snowflakes falling down during the entire day.

The winner of the day was Gabriele Mercante from Friuli who doubled his victory with the first one at Salvatoronda.

There comes the list of heroic winners of the day: Gabriele Mercante (Elite), Francesco Acquaviva (U23), Cavani (Women Open),Scapolan (Juniors), Giulio Franzolin, Nadir Colledani and Beatrice Camatta (Cadets), Matteo Sargenti and Rachele Barbieri (Debutants); Carmine Del Riccio (F1), Giuseppe Dal Grande (F2).

During the next weekend, December 5^th, the Trophy will be at Lucinicco (Go), for its 8^th trial. Meanwhile on Wednesday 8^th there will be held the International Cross of  Ponte a Faè in Oderzo (Tv).
