The Prize

The 18-carat gold medal won by Sante Gaiardoni!

This is the medal won by former Italian rider Sante Gaiardoni in Turin in 1929 and it is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity personally written by Sante. Along with Antonio Maspes, he is considered the greatest Italian track cyclist of all time. In the Rome Olympics of 1960 he was the only one to win two gold medals. He is also one of the few athletes to have won two Italian gold medals in individual sports in the same Games. He has two world medals (Leipzig 1960/Rocourt 1963), 4 silver and 2 bronze medals.

Even 50 years later, his popularity is still intact. In the collection of six short films, 'Milano 2015', which was presented last September at the Venice Film Festival, Sante Gaiardoni is in the episode directed by Walter Veltroni, 'Magic and fast', dedicated to the legendary Vigorelli Velodrome.
