After a great Giro d’Italia, the Bardiani – CSF is ready to return to racing at the 22rd Tour de Slovenie which will take place from June 18 to 21.

It is a four-day stage race where the italian squad achieved two victories in 2014 with Sonny Colbrelli and Manuel Bongiorno. The latter will lead the team together with Edoardo Zardini. The line-up also includes Andrea Manfredi who has finally recovered from a long injury and is ready to begin his season.

”We go to Slovenie with a strong team that will have two leaders in good shape in the duo Bongiorno – Zardini. Both have to do their best in stage 3 with a demanding mountaintop finish which will be decisive for the final general classification. In the two stages for fast riders I expect to see Piechele between the best," sports director Mirko Rossato said.

Line-up

Simone Andreetta, Manuel Bongiorno, Andrea Manfredi, Andrea Piechele, Luca Sterbini, Simone Sterbini, Alessandro Tonelli, Edoardo Zardini.
