SUPER MARIO?
Did anyone ride the Cipollini Sportive on sunday?
I was riding my usual roads when I was caught up in it,found out it cost £100 to enter!
Heard Mario was a bit grumpy and didnt interact with the punters,and he fell off at a feed station!

Great report. Made me feel as though I were there, minus the cake (boo) and rain (hooray)
I rode it, and if you have time to read about it, it's on my blog at http://www.thecyclingmayor.com/mario-cipollini-gran-fondo I think it's safe to say that it probably wasn't, at least going by me experience, value for money.
I wonder if Super Mario was unhappy he hadn't sold enough of his bikes giving him a bad mood
