Union Cyclists Trevigiani today received in the Italian National Olympic Committee Hall of Honor at Foro Italico in Rome the highest award reserved to athletes and sports clubs: the Golden Collar.

The important prize awarded by CONI President Giovanni Malagò, at the presence of Italy Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, was withdrawn by U.C. Trevigiani President Ettore Renato Barzi.

With this award, the Italian sports authority recognized, a long and rich history, over a century of business, athletes and events. «For me and the current board of directors was an honor to receive this award - commented Barzi. - This honor goes ideally to all the presidents and councilors who in this hundred years have worked hard and with passion for the prestige of our jersey. It is also a great motivation for us for the new season of Team Unieuro Wilier Trevigiani, a new and exciting phase in our history. 2015 will be my 2nd year as president of the team after 18 as vice president. I'm proud of our guys, young and motivated. I expect that our riders will well behave in and out races all over the world».
