The 2012 edition of the Tour of Reggio Calabria had one rider atop its classification… the dominant Elia Viviani of Liquigas-Cannondale. The young Olympic hopeful on the road as well as the track won both stages and the overall classification this past weekend, bringing his season total to five and making him the winningest rider of the young 2012 season.
"Winning the second stage was the icing on the cake, which I did thanks to the incredible work of my teammates," said Viviani, who will now head to London for the next round of the Track Cycling World Cup before returning to the road in March at Paris-Nice."These two dates are very important for my season. I want to return to London for the Olympic Games in July, and in France I want to improve my performance in World Tour racing."
