I meet Gianni Bugno, the World Champion and Giro winner in the nineties who is today a charming, fit forty-one year old man. It is a cold February evening in downtown Naples. We agree to have a pizza and while we walk to the restaurant he tells me about his love of flying. "Flying has always been my passion, along with riding. I started riding when I was 14, perhaps a bit late for a professional. When I stopped racing I decided to learn to fly." Today he works as a helicopter rescue pilot and it is this job that has brought him to Naples for fifteen days. His job takes him all over the Italian peninsula including Milan, Naples and Lampedusa.
