The Colnago’s man


Two great Italians, Colnago and former professional cyclist Paolo Bettini will work together as the former world champion joins Colnago as our ambassador.

In an agreement signed by Paolo Bettini and Ernesto Colnago at Colnago headquarters in Cambiago, Bettini will be an integral part of the development of Colnago’s 2011 bicycles, and will be a lead rider at the Granfondo Colnago San Diego on March 7.

Paolo Bettini and Colnago have a long friendship that goes back to Bettini’s successful years on the Mapei-Colnago team. That phase of his career culminated in 2002 when his victories included Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the HEW Cyclassics and the overall World Cup title, all achieved on a Colnago bicycle.

I am sorry to inform everyone that neither I nor my agent was contacted about an appearance in San Diego on March 7th. I apologize for any inconvenience and disappointment that many of my fans must be feeling right now. However I will be the lead rider in the Granfondo in Rouge Roubaix on March 7th, please take the time to change your flight arrangements and once again I am sorry for the miscommunication.
Ciao!
