The meeting with his family in Gubbio was not planned, so this morning Diego Ulissi had a surprise with a truly special flavor. The new pink jersey of the Giro d'Italia was able to hug his wife Adriana and their daughters Lia, Anna, and Viola. A new emotion for Diego, who already yesterday in the press conference had talked about his "beautiful family": an emotion from the pink jersey!

"I slept what I could sleep, but today I'm ready to give more than 100 percent to defend the pink jersey. I know it will be difficult, but I would like to keep it. My women gave me a beautiful surprise, their arrival was not expected and this morning I had this new wonderful emotion!" With Adriana and the three girls, this morning in Gubbio were also dad Mauro and mom Donatella.
