Here Are the 15 “Puntuali” Riders of the BGY Airport Granfondo
They are the most loyal friends of the event – those cyclists who have never missed a single edition of the Bergamo-based granfondo since the very beginning.
In a world that moves fast and changes quickly, there’s something that remains unchanged: passion. The true kind, that renews itself year after year without losing strength. It’s the passion of the 15 “Puntuali” riders-cyclists who haven’t missed a single edition of the BGY Airport Granfondo.
Since the first time, they’ve chosen to be there. And from that moment on, they never stopped. They’ve tackled every route, every weather condition, every challenge with the same enthusiasm and determination. Year after year, edition after edition, these 15 devoted riders have written a story of loyalty, love for cycling, and attachment to an event that has grown thanks in part to their presence.
It’s a challenge within the challenge, one that has led them to cross every finish line and collect a personal record marked by respect and belonging. For this reason, the organizing committee of the BGY Airport Granfondo has decided to reward them with a special place in the first starting grid – a heartfelt recognition of their sportsmanship and unwavering commitment.
The “Puntuali” riders represent the most authentic soul of the BGY Airport Granfondo: one made of passion, friendship, and continuity. A group that truly embodies the spirit of the event and reminds us each year how beautiful it is to be there. Always.
