This 95th edition of the Six Days of Enduro is truly one of the most awaited, now close to the start after a year of patient and tenacious expectation.
There is a lot of activity at Rivanazzano Terme Airport, headquarters of the majestic event, where the best teams in the world have already arrived a few days ago, ready to compete for the victory in what is considered by all to be a sort of motorcycling Olympics.
About 650 pilots arrived in Oltrepo Pavese to compete in the race: in the team competitions for nations, there are 21 national teams competing for the World Championship, 14 for the Junior title and 98 for the women’s national ranking.
Pavesi present
The largest of the races, however, is the team one, with around 170 teams competing. The Pavia area is well represented, as expected: just think of the fact that only the Moto Club Pavia fields five teams, in addition to other teams such as the Valli Oltrepo Team or the Valle Staffora Moto Club, where the expert Fabio Fasola.
However, the Ariel Car Busco Bros team, made up of the three brothers Paolo, Francesco and Riccardo Buscone, deserves special mention.
Sport or magic?
“Enduro has never been just a sport, but has always given its fans wonderful stories and anecdotes that make it in some ways magical – tell the Buscone brothers – participating in a race of this importance is the dream of all enduro riders. , because the Six Days of Enduro is history ».
It all starts in 2017, in France, in Brive La Gaillarde, Paolo Buscone, a young enduro rider from Voghera, is across the Alps to participate in the 92nd edition of the International Six Days Enduro: after the sporting adventure in France, Paolo returns home and tells to his brothers, Francesco and Riccardo, all about his experience: how hard and difficult that race was but at the same time also beautiful and rewarding. From there the 3 brothers, two of whom, Paolo and Francesco, are twins, begin to work on their dream: to participate in an International Six Day Enduro in a single team made up of the three of them.
“Since, two years ago, the news was made official that the Moto Olympics would be held in Oltrepo Pavese based at Rivanazzano Terme Airport (literally a few hundred meters from their home, ed), we worked tirelessly for the BuscoBros team to take shape and life. Now, after a long wait, the moment has come – they say – we are very satisfied with how we are working in these pre-race days, we have analyzed the special stages several times, always with great enthusiasm and team spirit, and this is a good premise in view of the start of the tender that will be really challenging – they continue – we have prepared ourselves with the utmost professionalism and we will give our best to obtain positive results, we owe it to our advertising partners, to our father, to our friends and to all those who supported us, believing in our ambitious project – and finally conclude – the dream of three brothers together, in a single team, the Six Days International has become reality ».alberto antoniazzi
