Earlier today,
Manuele Boaro announced on his social media that current season will be his last in professional peloton. The 36-year-old rider's victory count stands at three, winning stages at several smaller races. However, more than for winning, Boaro was known and respected as a loyal teammate and someone who never hesitated to give his all for his leaders.
"Today I'm riding my last race as a professional and there's already a bit of nostalgia. I'll miss the cheering of the people on the side of the road, I'll miss being in a group, pulling, covering the captain. I'll miss all this but I know I to have been lucky to have done the best job in the world."
