Androni - Sidermec has finished the second training camp in preparation for the new season. The Italian team has been active on the roads of Valencia in order to lay the foundations for a great 2016.

The riders have engaged in training in the various areas of the region, helped by an excellent climate and the guidance of sports directors Giovanni Ellena, Giampaolo Cheula and Roberto Miodini. Doctors Maurizio Vivini and Andrea Giorgi have done various tests.

The group will gather again in Benidorm Gianni Habit in mid-January. However, six riders will be absent as Rodolfo Torres, Francis Chicchi, Marco Frapporti, Daniele Ratto, Davide Viganò and Serghei Ţvetcov will be absent as they will be engaged in the Tour de San Luis.

Last year Torres was second in the Argentinean race and he hopes to get his time at Androni off to a great start. With fast riders Chicchi, Ratto and Vigano on the roster, the team will have lots of opportunities in the sprint stages too.
