Paolo Bettini (Quick-Step) continues his 2006 season on the wood planks of the Grenoble Velodrome southeastern France. Il Grillo will partner with experienced Six Day rider Marco Villa to tackle the event which starts today.
The rider from Livorno is coming off of a mythical season that saw him win the Italian Championships, the World Championships, and most recently, the Giro di Lombardia. After Lombardia, Bettini took time to prepare for this Six Day with Italian Track Director Sportif Sandro Callari. Bettini has little experience in this discipline.
