Going by the name of the Tirol Cycling Team, they’re the Austrian road cycling team which Bepin De Eto backs and supports in the name of a shared passion: sports. Owner Ettore Ceschin once again proves to be an enlightened entrepreneur who, even in name, honours noble ideas and the resolute strength of the heroes of ancient Greek poetry. This an adventurous spirit is always seeking new challenges and satisfaction, especially winning, sporty souls just as the athletes on the Austrian team are proving to be. On that note, 28-year-old Veneto-raised Filippo Fortin’s win at the GP Izola in Slovenia is fresh off the press. He triumphed in the final sprint, leaving the hometown champion Marko Kump, who rides for the UAE Team Emirates, on his heels. It’s a splendid marriage between the world of wine and cycling which is sure to reward us all with plenty of excitement.
