“Both the outgoing board of directors and myself are very happy with what has happened in recent years. We are running for re-election with a renewed team, with up to seven new recruits, with there are many young people and there is a noticeable presence of women in the team. I hope that this is the last legislature that I will assume in the case of being elected and in its course we will carry out the generational change with the young people”, explained to MD Rubèn Peris, that is clear. that the main objective sought is to “consolidate what we have done so far and continue with the resulting exchange”.
This year the Volta’s 102nd edition It had a very high level of participation and was a complete success, starting with four of the cyclists who had to fight for victory in Italy before the Giro started: Remco Evenepoel, Geraint Thomas, Joao Almeida and Primoz Roglicas Slovenian the winner of the Catalan round in Montjuic. And no less successful was the women’s event, reVolta, which opened the UCI 1.1 category, with the only British victory Claire Steelsand he has sant cugat again as its epicenter.
The board of directors who won the elections must maintain and consolidate the sporting proposal of the Volta and the reVolta, a women’s event that should go further and is expected to last until 2024; find a new venue, because both Volta and the Esportiva Sants Unitedthey must leave the current one and find a new one, and hunt and hunt for new sponsors that guarantee better possibilities.
The Volta Ciclista a Catalunya has a budget of 1.5 million euros that you must know how to manage. Until now “I can be proud to say that we do not owe anyone and this is an issue that we have always been clear about with our team. Thanks to the institutions, the GeneralitatWe, the councils and private sponsors can say that the Volta is healthy, but it is not easy to carry out the work that we have done in these years, because it is necessary to think that cycling has become very professional, which forced us to go up the level, and if it falls into inexperienced hands it can last four days”.
For all this, Rubèn Peris hopes to continue to lead Volta (where he has worked and dedicated his life since 1983) in the next six-year legislature and during this time make a transition and replaced the youth.
