TUSCANY TRAIL 2014

“Swallowed up. Pervaded. Enriched. I did not cross Tuscany; Tuscany crossed me. The smells, the silences, its eyes and the people I met. A privilege enlivened by the movement of my legs cycling for six endless days. This was my Tuscany Trail! An adventure that like few others has been able to dig into the roots of the off-road bicycle to propose something that has a genuine taste: a man, his bicycle and a long journey before him. No rules. No prize. Because the real wealth is to have cycled from the first to the last kilometer.” ORME.TV

“…you feel like you are almost alone in nature, and when you reach a place, you are before history and art. Someone said that when you make these trips, you are in a space/time bubble. Well, that’s what I felt at the Tuscany Trail” Andrea Pizza

“… what counts now is being here and having won the most important challenge, the one I have been trying to win since the first day I mounted a bicycle: the challenge to myself.” Maurizio Deflorian
