GS Citizens takes a decisive step in its growth path, welcoming an authentic legend of world cycling into its corporate structure: it is with immense satisfaction that the Verona-based company announces the arrival of Gianni Bugno in the role of Honorary President.

In response to the proposal from President Luca Vaiente, the Monza champion accepted without hesitation, enthusiastically agreeing to support the management, technical staff, and all the team's athletes.

The words of President Luca Vaiente: «Having a champion and a person like Gianni Bugno by our side represents the utmost. Our goal is to grow in every sector of our cycling company, and we could not wish for a better guide. His experience, his vision, and his advice will be fundamental for the technical and organizational development of our project».

And here is Gianni Bugno's response: «When Luca proposed this role to me, I accepted immediately. I was truly pleased to have been chosen for a project dedicated to young and developing riders, and this excites me greatly. I have made myself available to follow the team in line with my work commitments, but I will always be by their side for any advice or guidance useful to make this project increasingly solid and a point of reference for young cyclists».

Bugno's arrival (pictured in a vintage photo with Luca Vaiente) has generated great enthusiasm among the athletes and their families, who proudly welcome such a prestigious figure within the Verona team.
