sulle strade dell airone

very difficult itinerary, crossing hills and towns where Fausto Coppi known as 'the Heron' spent much of his life. Places to visit include the champions museum in Novi Ligure, full of cycling memories and its champions, Castellania the village where Coppi was born, and his family mausoleum, San Agata Fossili, a town where prehistoric fossils can be seen in the surroundings. A very scenic itinerary for both the view and Coppi’s birthplace as well as the museum in Novi Ligure, and also for that emotion of retracing the roads that Coppi once took for his training; it's hard not to hold back tears thinking of Coppi.
