Thoughts and predictions of the fonzasina who is preparing for his Giro: “I like to encourage the last ones”

FELT

The last week of the Giro and the second part of the group, the climbs and the effort, the smiles and the gratitude. These are the pink thoughts of Lara Vieceli, the athlete from Fonzaso who has been pedaling for years in the group of world cycling professionals. The rider of the Ceratizit-Wnt team, born in 1993, will follow the final of the Giro d’Italia number 105 from afar: yesterday, in fact, she left for England where she will compete in the Ride London from today to Sunday. «I have often experienced the end of the Giro from the side of the road, on my roads in the Feltrino and Belluno area, but this year it will not be like this even if I saw one stage, the one with arrival in Lavarone».

On the streets that, now, are also a bit of your home since you have been living in Borgo Valsugana for a while.

“Indeed it is. I went on the final climb, that of the Menador, to see the last climb of the day of the Ponte di Legno – Lavarone. And once again, I empathized with the riders, especially with the last ones. I especially like looking at the second part of the group, looking the boys in the eye, cheering them on, smiling at them. A look and a smile that is returned, with gratitude. That gratitude that is also mine when I struggle uphill and the public on the side of the road encourages me by relieving a little, as far as possible, the great effort I am doing ».

An effort that becomes immense in the final stages of a great Giro. And if the last climb, after three weeks, is called Marmolada …

«On my bike I did it only once in training and it was enough for me. It is truly a monstrous rise. On slopes like this, after twenty days of Giro you don’t know how the body can react ».

Will there also be a battle on San Pellegrino and Pordoi?

“The men in the table will wait for Fedaia to do battle and I believe that in the end one of them will win.”

Chi?

“I say Jai Hindley. The Australian (who today is just 3 “behind the Pink Richard Carapaz jersey, ndr) on the Menador I saw him perky and on the Marmolada he will also go hunting for bonuses to nibble as much as possible in view of the final time trial in Verona ».

Are you rooting for him?

«I am counting on him for the victory over Fedaia but I like Carapaz».

What Giro has it been so far?

«I disagree with those who say it was a boring Giro and lacking in big names. I don’t like it when they say there are no samples. We need to change our gaze: we must not look at the starting list but enjoy the show. Everyone, even the lesser known names, put on a show. Yes, I like this Giro ».

Last question. What will Lara Vieceli’s Giro be like?

“We will know in a few weeks. These days I am at Ride London, then I will do a period of preparation on the heights in Livigno. And I enjoy the new awareness that the Vuelta a Burgos gave me: on the Spanish roads I wore the leader’s jersey of the mountain grand prix for three of the four stages and finished third in the second stage. After two difficult years I have proved that I am not over. Yes, I liked it ».
