Bianchi bikes have been around for over a century, and their reputation for blending style and performance continues to thrive. From the design to the build, every aspect of a Bianchi bike is carefully crafted to deliver a cycling experience that is both powerful and elegant.

La Classicicissima is another old old bike race, starting up in 1907 (and an amateur 2-day version in 1906). The soon to be 2-time Tour de France winner Lucien Petit-Breton won the first race. The 1920s were dominated by Costante Girardengo who won the race 6 times and had 5 further podium places. The Italian dominance continued into the 1940s with heavyweights like Alfredo Binda, Gino Bartali & Fausto Coppi all winning the race.
