The sun is finally shining on Florence (Italy) after a week of cold and humidity. And in the famous Piazza della Signoria, around fifty cyclists, dressed in old jerseys from the 1930s, ride up to the steps of Palazzo Vecchio. And place their bikes in front of the replica of Michelangelo’s famous David.
But on March 22, there is no question of honoring the Italian Renaissance. Just to announce the imminent arrival of a great first in Italy. In exactly one hundred days, the Tour de France, for the first time in 111 editions, will start from Italy. And in the heart of one of its most beautiful jewels: Florence.
