Axeon Hagens Berman Takes Gold in G.P. Palio del Recioto

NEGAR, Italy – Ruben Guerreiro, a 21-year-old member of the Axeon Hagens Berman cycling team took first place in the G.P. Palio del Recioto in Negar, Italy, conquering the 143.2-kilometer Italian Under 23 race.

 

Guerreiro and Michal Schlegel – who took second place – finished 62 seconds ahead of the third-place finisher, Amanuel Gebreigzabheir, and 1:59 ahead of a group including Axeon Hagens Berman's Tao Geoghegan Hart, who placed seventh.

 

Hagens Berman threw its support behind the team for the 2016 season, expanding one of the world's leading cycling development programs. By helping fund developmental U-23 teams, the firm creates life-changing opportunities through the team’s training and fostering of young talent into the big leagues.

 

Hagens Berman has sponsored one of the longest-running UCI road racing teams registered in the USA, Jamis-Hagens Berman, and also bolstered the Hagens Berman U-23 Cycling Program. Most recently, the firm also joined forces with Supermint Racing to forge a new UCI women’s team. The team brings together riders and staff from Supermint, the former BMW-Happy Tooth team and the Italian Conceria Zabri Pro Cycling Team.

 

“The components of competitive cycling at the U-23 level are all key facets of what our firm supports – endurance, dedication and balance,” said Steve Berman, managing partner of Hagens Berman. “It’s an honor to help forge young talent to compete in the upper levels of the sport, and to see Axeon Hagens Berman achieve this victory is a thrill.”

 

Hagens Berman strives to provide young riders with opportunities and experiences that can change their lives forever and build the skills to succeed both on and off the bike. Read more about Axeon Hagens Berman.
