I know him well. I would like to fight with the other athletes of the Women’s World Tour on the Poggio. And it would be a dream to win Milan-San Remo“, declares Marta Cavalli in comments reported by Cycling news.

I like the fact that these are really tough classes. It will be a demanding season because there are so many new races, including the Tour de France. The team is focused on being at their best on the Tour, I’m an Italian athlete and I have the Giro in my heart. I think it is possible to do both.“
