Hello all,
I have a few questions concerning biking in Italy, more precisely in and around Torino. I am
considering the possibility of relocating there for a few years for business reasons. I've tried a
Google search - but due to my not yet existing knowledge of Italian (Google's Italian translator
gives gibberish) I couldn't find the info I'm looking for. I found out that apparently a bike seems
to be a good means of transportation in the city of Torino itself - true ? Now, my question is,
about bike clubs and races. I've taken up biking a few years ago, and started out doing centuries
and the like. About 1 1/2 years ago I started racing, just for the fun of it, so I'm fairly
entry-level (though pretty decent for a newbie). Are there any cycling clubs in/around Torino where
I might fit in - i.e. not "pure" racing clubs, but not really slow ones ? And, do amateur
entry-level races exist in Italy ? All info, links to webpages, personal experiences are greatly
appreciated !
Thanks !
