The LMF Official Fan Club has been born, with the hope that it will have a glorious path ahead like that of the young champion it intends to support: Lorenzo Mark Finn. LMF, in fact, are the initials of the two-time World Champion who yesterday concluded the "Coppi e Bartali".

But in the coming months his commitments will become decidedly more pressing. Among the objectives are the Giro Next Gen, the Tour de l'Avenir and the World Championship, which this year is scheduled in Montreal, Canada.

Who are the founders of the Club? Besides his parents, all long-time friends who have seen Lorenzo take his first steps in the world of cycling. They are not fans,

they are people who care about "Lollo" as if he were their own son.

The Fan Club is an act of love towards a young man who has great athletic abilities and on whom the Italian cycling movement places great hopes after years in which it certainly has not shone. There are five founding members: Chiara Iperti, his mother, Bruno Perfumo, Andrea Manitto, Ettore Macera and Matteo Bertoni. The club's headquarters is located in Borzonasca in the historic premises of Bar Pasticerria Macera, where cycling has always been discussed, suffice it to say that Angelo Brignole, the unforgettable gregario of Gino Bartali, was a regular at the bar. The statute and relative regulations have been drawn up, with the objectives of supporting the athlete on roads all over the world, but at the same time promoting the values of sport, cycling and fair play.
