All our team member share the same passion for Cycling and for Sicily. For us is important to show our friends that we are Sicilians and we are proud of our Island, of its traditions and we love to share our culture. Sicily is not the land of Mafia. This is the land of Archimede, Pirandello, Verga, Vincenzo Bellini and also of Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino.
Sicily is also the land of great cyclists like Vincenzo Nibali, Giovanni Visconti, Gianpaolo Caruso and Paolo Tiralongo.
Ciao! I'm Tommaso and I am the President of Sicily Cycling Club. I run a Software Company and I studied in Catania and at NYU after I had traveled all around the world during my life. I have a great passion for cycling, for bike, for food from all world and I am in love with my beautiful Island. Sicily is "special" in many ways. I love to show our friends from all around the world that Sicily is different from what they have seen on the Godfather movie.
Sicily is all about history, culture, food, wine and Sicilians.
Giuseppe (or Peppe) is a very nice guy. He is always calm, relaxed and, smiley. He is a volcano guide on Etna and knows everything about our Mountain.
With Peppe you will have a lot of fun but make sure he doesn't eat any dairy food or he will be over. Our mechanic and soigneur Danilo always want to try what happens if he eats some cheese... one day we will try. But only if we are close to a good hospital 😀
Danilo is our mechanic, soigneur, driver, psychologist (if needed), and problem-solver... well without this guy we can do nothing!
For some reason all our clients love him and that's why we don't like the guy. 😀
He is too nice to all of us and that's not good for him... sometimes he ends up working late because we have a problem on the shifter the day before the race. He must learn to sat FUXX YOU GUYS!
He is the strongest athlete in the group. He is a triathlete for the Italian National Team.
Some girls say he is handsome but we don't trust them... we still call him "the Baby". Please don't make him drink or he will end up on the sofa for the rest of the day (his low body fat doesn't help).
Luca is a Young Sicilian Doctor. He likes to travel and to post his photos on the social media. We always make jokes about this. Apart from this Luca is a very nice guy. He lived in Sydney for one year and when we have some friend from Australia he loves to guide them.
Luca is also an Ironman and he has the biggest calf you could see in our team!
Fabio (nickname Brucco) is a school teacher and is one of the strongest members of Sicily Cycling Club. He is a cool and nice guy with a lot of knowledge of Sicilian Culture and with a deep passion for cycling. He is really strong on both Road bike and Mountain Bike and won several local races on our Volcano.
Sometimes our friends from all over the world try to challenge him on the climbs... well it is not a great choice!!!
