Campagnolo would not be part of mythology if it were not for the legendary races. We will explore the key role the brand has played in the history of competitive cycling, with standout events and anecdotes from the greats who rode to success, thanks to the "wings on their wheels": Coppi and Merckx, for starters, then the "local boys" from the same region as Tullio, Massignan, Zandegù and Ballan; the gold medal winner at the 1960 Rome Olympics and, later directeur sportif for Merckx, Marino Vigna, also has a few tales to tell, as does Pier Bergonzi, deputy editor-in-chief at the Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper.
Some vintage newsreel adds to the sense of history, and we also delve into the atmosphere of a contemporary race: this year's Milan-Sanremo.
