In the first post-Covid calendar there are 158 races but also many holes

TREVISO

The Covid era holds its own, but there are too many “holes” in the amateurs. The Treviso cycling calendar, starting next weekend with a double race for the Under 23-Elite – on Saturday the Polese in Santa Maria di Piave and on Sunday the classic circuit of Castello Roganzuolo – includes 158 races up to October, amateurs included: one every two days. A calculation that keeps us in the tricolor elite, being able to count on 83 road and 13 off-road races, 20 competitions for Juniors and 18 reserved for students, 14 dates between national and international races, 42 appointments for Giovanissimi. But the increasingly reduced number of rendezvous for U23-Elite does not go unnoticed: only nine, concentrated in the first part of the season. An erosion accentuated in the last three years: stop at the Circuits of Mareno, Pianzano and Cimetta, Scomigo disappeared, Bianchin canceled. Now the Circuito dell’Assunta is also out, however replaced by a women’s Open.

“Unfortunately there are some cracks in amateur races, luckily we have the news of Vazzola at the end of the season”, reflects Giorgio Dal Bò, president of Federciclo Treviso. «We are moderately satisfied: we held up despite the economic crisis caused by Covid. I like to point out the ferment of off-road vehicles on Montello after the difficulties of the past, in the Giovanissimi we will have the National Meeting event in June and we plan to expand the calendar, taking up every Sunday ». The novelty of the international Juniores of San Vendemiano stands out, while the Pink Day of Arcade will assign the regional titles.
