Skiing with the Ciao: a unique adventure with DRIFT EVO II
From Verona to the Dolomites on a Ciao: this is how the trip of 3 guys, accompanied by their DRIFT EVO II Carbon Nova, turned into a true adventure.
What happens when nostalgia meets a thirst for adventure? You get a journey that is anything but ordinary—one filled with charm and excitement!
Marco Brentegani, a 25-year-old photographer, his brother Matteo, a 22-year-old vehicle engineering student, and Filippo Bellisola, a 30-year-old filmmaker, decided to ride their Piaggio Ciao all the way to Passo Valles in the Dolomites, where they would go ski mountaineering and spend the night outdoors in sleeping bags.
Their Ciao mopeds, once beloved icons of the ’70s and ’80s, had been rescued from garages together with old chicken coops, then carefully restored to take on this one-of-a-kind winter adventure.
Equipped with skis, luggage, sleeping bags, and provisions, the trio and their Ciaos set off from Verona, facing the uphill climb to Passo Valles with patience, determination, and a healthy dose of enthusiasm.
Accompanying them on this adventure were the DRIFT EVO II Carbon Nova full-face helmets by Caberg.
Top-of-the-range full-face helmet with sporty and modern lines, the DRIFT EVO II is ECE 22.06 approved and offers maximum protection.
The scratch-resistant visor with standard Pinlock MAXVISION anti-fog lens ensures perfect vision, while the integrated sun visor protects against light. The advanced ventilation system, with four air intakes and as many extractors, maintains comfort even after hours of driving. The shell is available in fibreglass and carbon, just like in the Carbon Nova version used by the three guys.
The DRIFT EVO II is also equipped with CABERG SOS MEDICAL ID: an innovative system that allows first responders to instantly access the rider’s medical data by simply tapping an NFC-enabled smartphone on the CABERG SOS MEDICAL ID logo on the helmet. The system also automatically sends an emergency SMS to pre-set contacts.
Before setting off, Marco, Matteo, and Filippo uploaded all their medical information and emergency contacts onto the CABERG SOS MEDICAL ID device of their helmets. Because when you’re riding through the mountains in the middle of winter, it’s always better to be prepared!
This adventure proves that, with a touch of madness, good friends, and the right equipment, even the craziest ideas can become unforgettable experiences. And with a helmet like the DRIFT EVO II CARBON NOVA, safety is guaranteed, wherever the road takes you.
