On Monday, October 24, Giulio Ciccone will have a minor operation to solve the problems that influenced his last performances and required an early end to his 2016 season. After medical checks, the Italian rider of Bardiani-CSF will undergo ablative surgery of the cardiac tissue which generates problems during heavy effort.

The medical procedure won’t be really invasive and will allow Ciccone to fully recover in one month, just in time to start the inter preparation in view of the 2017 season.
