La Marca turns pink as it passes between two wings of the crowd with a full crowd of fans

by admin

From Castelfranco to Cordignano, passing through Montebelluna and Ponte della Priula The flag for Bernal, the drawings of the schoolchildren in Arcade, the tricolor on the Piave

TREVISO

The applause of Montebelluna and the warmth of Volpago, the greeting from Ponte della Priula and the affection of Cordignano. Establishing a ranking of typhus is a very complicated exercise, what is certain is that the love of Treviso enthusiasts for the Giro has invaded roundabouts and streets, squares and gardens, houses and shops. Thousands of friends of the pedal yesterday in the Marca for the first pink embrace of the 2021 edition: 60 km and 90 minutes between Castelfranco and Cordignano, in the Cittadella-Monte Zoncolan which gave the “start” to the decisive week of the most loved race.

No departure or arrival, but the most cycling province of Italy enjoys the appetizer of a key stage. And the feeling that is gaining ground is that of rebirth: joy in the eyes, people taking back their lives after the hardest months of the pandemic. After leaving the festive Piazza Pierobon in Cittadella, again colored pink 13 years after Mark Cavendish’s winning sprint, the group enters the Marca just before noon. The baptism is up to Castelfranco, here the fans also find space on the roundabouts: the pink magic is not to be missed. There is no entrance to the historic center, the tadpoles are limited to skirting the city of Giorgione, but it would be a crime not to enjoy the party live.

Here cycling is in the DNA: Zalf is based, next month there will be the final goal of the Giro Under 23. The first real crowds, however, can be found in Caselle di Altivole, in the small towns. A Colombian flag also emerges for Bernal, the former pro Oscar Gatto grew up there. Montebelluna makes the applausometer go crazy: there is the audience of great occasions, better than that we cannot honor the twentieth anniversary of the 2001 stage won by Matteo Tosatto, now sporting director at Ineos. You pass through Corso Mazzini, right there under the deluge the ex gregarious riesino was exalted. Then we head to the Schiavonesca, the lover Volpago stands out. Giavera’s embrace brings to mind the 1985 World Cup, so Arcade wins the ranking of banners, pink bows, decorations. The square covered with the drawings of schoolchildren. And, shortly before, even a sign for the former Paduan cyclist Giada Borgato, now Rai technical commentator.

We move to Pontebbana and see the riders masters of the road has a certain effect. Pleasant setting in Spresiano, the giant tricolor in Ponte della Priula does not go unnoticed. There are those who choose the glimpse of the Piave for the souvenir video, there are those who prefer to wait at the roundabout: here is Andrea Vendrame’s Fans Club, l’enfant du pays. Conegliano is just lapped like Castelfranco, in a garden they unleash breakdance and the director Rai does not miss the choreography. Great cheering also in Orsago and Cordignano: in those parts they are all for Davide Cimolai. Then we arrive in Friuli and it is easy to imagine that the party on the climb of the Caneva castle counts on the support of several Treviso people. Someone has climbed up there, on the kaiser Zoncolan. –
