Vanno Velocissime

by on Dec.30, 2009, under Grab Bag

My cycling club, FOG, is offering a very nice looking merino wool trainer (Australian merino wool), think wool warm-up jacket. The email notification included a picture and it has the words “FOG Manitoba” across the front and then, is smaller script underneath “Vanno Velocissime”. I was curious, so a little Googling was in order. It turns out it’s Italian, and of course it’s a cycling term. Curious? It and other terms are explained here (I like the photograph too, it looks like many typical cycling days in Manitoba).

I’m going to practice this one for the club rides next spring. “Vado troppo veloce per te?”
