Cycling – first race with the eolo kometa

Almagro

Andrea Pietrobon’s 2022 season kicks off in Spain.

The runner from Pieve di Cadore, who this season wears the jersey of the Eolo Kometa Under 23, the Italian-Spanish team led by two big names like Ivan Basso and Alberto Contador, will be at the start of the 22nd edition of the Memorial Manuel Sanroma, a race that Almagro, in the Mancha area, offers two races, tomorrow and Sunday.

With lui ci saranno Manuel Sanroma. Fernando Tercero, Javi Serrano, Andrea Montoli, Davide Piganzoli, Francisco Muñoz and Marcel Camprubí.

“The preparation went well, already in October, since I had finished the 2021 season prematurely”, explains the boy born in 1999, back from two seasons with the Cycling Team Friuli and Zalf Desirée Fior. «I did two short internships, in Oliva, and a longer one, one month, between Tenerife and Gran Canaria. Here at Eolo I feel good, they are all very professional and believe in my “redemption”. Contador and Basso are two great points of reference, competent and available: they are a very important support ».

“For the first few months we will play the Spanish Cup matches,” says Pietrobon. “It will be essential to do well to then be able to hit the goal of the second half of the season: to earn the place of intern in the Professional team”. –
