Here we are! Hello!
This morning there was a crazy traffic jam on Viale Sarca, here in Milan… and the rain… and all the people rushing: what a great way for starting the week! ![]()
But what else could we expect from the first day of fall?
We got our daily coffee to survive the morning, and we gathered to define some points concerning the event.
As you read in the first post the Tour of the Alps is a three days event.
We think and hope you are a bit curious about it and you might wonder what exactly will happen in those three days…
No worries, we will make everything clearer, post after post.
We are now all together in the meeting room to define the last details for Tuesday the 13th October.
We have our laptops, papers and pens… and some craziness, which sometimes helps
You already know that the guests (bloggers and journalists) will be divided into two groups, one leaving from Munich and the other one from Milan: just the time for the presentations and we will be ready to start the trip to reach the Stelvio Pass!
To be more precise the group that will leave from Milan will have a stopover in Vizzola, to test the new Winter Snowcontrol Serie II on the track.
The group leaving from Munich will instead stop in Vizzola on the 15th October… but we will tell you about this in a couple of days, as we still have to define it completely.
The new Polo, the Fiat 500, the Panda 4×4, the Seat Leon, the Peugeot 308, the Mercedes class A… these are just some of the cars that our guest will find at their arrival in the airport, waiting for them, obviously equipped with the Winter Snowcontrol Serie II.
Ok, we are not talking of Lamborghini and Porsche… but still these cars are fairly more “human” and we will probably drive them more easily being more used to them!
Well, our meeting goes on, but we will update you on our decisions in a very short time. ![]()
See you soon!
