Yes - great press for Marco and recumbents in general. His daughter Sophia stole the show however!
If you did now watch it until the end - you don't even have to understand Italian to appreciate her "schooling" the GNC guy!

I had the pleasure of meeting Marco with Larry at the worlds in France last year.

Sofia was there too... She seems so so interested in everything.

I noticed that GCN Italia didn't want to try his hell and back recumbent ... last version.

There is a youtube video on how he made it. Brilliant.

He is very fortunate to have a nice big workshop.

I thought I noticed the one GCN guy flying by on the THT version at the very end while the other guy was talking? no?

Now that my neighbor Casey is in Milan for a couple years there is a v20 nearby. I think Marco is a bout an hour from there. @markciccio pm me you email I will have Casey give you a ring.

They chickened out trying the lowracer, probably because they will be schooled by Sophia

because they will be schooled by Sophia again.

Hi to you all! Just seen there was a topic about the video. There will be more videos about recumbents in the future on GCN Italia, but we have got to schedule, maybe something in the winter. Yes, Giorgio tried the low racer but it is made on my misures so he could not pedal properly (he is a big guy). But at the end of the video he is riding it as well, just rolling. Sofia was a perfect actress, far above us all.
We have talked a lot about the "style" of the video and we decided not to use the one of the english GCN, too wierd and not enough technical. In the next videos we will approach in a proper way the all recumbent stuff, be sure.
The video has at the moment be viewed by plus 60000 vievers, that for an italian bike video is a lot. They have even talked about recumbents on yesterday's GCN Show, and made a survey on the GCN app. Here is the video of the backstage:
