Let’s go! Erik taking the win in the P/1/2 field at #wintersroadrace! Hot temps and high winds ruled the day, but Erik attacked at the bottom of the final climb and went to deep dark places to take the 🥇!

Wonderful to have @dolce_vita_cycling at stag tonight. Great representation of the Club. 🇮🇹 #cyclingclub

Wrapping up an awesome weekend put on by @berkeleybike at the #berkeleyomnium! The big winner for the weekend was @jacobeyj , taking 🥉in the #berkelyhillsroadrace, 🥇in the #berkeleystreetscriterium, and 🥇in the Omnium in the Elite 4 category! DVC walked away with another 🥇over the weekend in the 35+ 3/4 field with @pier_diprima taking top honors in the criterium. A new “Italian Stallion” in the making? 🤣 Also in the 35+ 3/4 field, the inaugural member of the DVC Colombian contingent @germanandresz wrapped up 🥉 in the Omnium after placing 7th in both the road race and criterium. Consistency pays off! Finally, the man, the myth, the master of data privacy - Gabe P. taking a well deserved 🥈in the 35+ 123 field after towing a 3 man break for the bulk of the race! Amazing job everyone! On to the next weekend!

After a bit of frustration from a cancelled Snelling road race (thank you @velopromo and @bike_curious for thinking safety first!), the boys lined up for the #mercedcriterium. While it didn’t go our way for the group of hitters we have lining up for our Cat 4 squad, we know there are good things to come! In the 35+123 race, our DVC diesel engine @jyangsta showed that he’s brought the huge gains in fitness across to the 2024 season, nailing 🥇in a field with some of the strongest masters racers in the #ncnca ! Congrats James, and to the rest of the squad for flying the colors! On to the next race!

Then we had Gabe holding it down at the Cal Aggie Criterium, bringing home another 🥈in the 35+ 123 race! Finally, another group of newly minted DVC boys getting their racing on at @velopromo ‘s Early Bird series. We’ll surely see these guys mean-mugging and smiling on a podium near you soon!

Dolce Vita Cycling - 2023 Summer Team Camp! Took in West Cliff, a fierce headwind up the coast, Bonny Doon Road! And a ripping descent down Empire.

Let’s hear it for @tjsnydr who recently completed the Tour Divide from Banff to Antelope Wells, New Mexico. Tim rode a casual 2697 miles in 22 days 21 hours and 54 minutes 🤯. That’s an average of 117 miles a day on a fully loaded bike. What a monster!

“Via con dios”. No better words to be sent off with when tackling a beast like the Copperopolis Road Race. A beauty and a brute, it certainly stands up to the billing as the hardest race on the @_ncnca_ calendar! Thanks for another fantastic edition @velopromo ! DVC took home a couple of podium spots with @jyangsta finishing strong for 5th in the E3, and Aaron Smith nabbing🥉after being stuck in a break battling 3 others from an opposing team.

Happy to welcome SFIAC sponsored @dolce_vita_cycling to the Club. 🇮🇹

Opening weekend baby! The @velopromo #snellingroadrace NEVER disappoints! With snow falling at 7am, flooded sections of road hiding murderous potholes, and generally frigid temps that had everyone wearing ALL the gear they had, it was a day of both carnage and celebration! Huge congratulations go to @jyangsta for crushing the bunch sprint for the 🥇in the Elite 3 race, and for “GP” motoring home to nab 🥈after riding the break of the race. Continuing the DVC tradition of Snelling podium domination and making it a DVC 1-2! Big props to @mmcginley92 for throwing repeated haymakers in the final kilometers to make the other favorites chase and still finishing in the top ten! All this with over half the squad flatting out at one point or another.

Good luck at the #mercedcriterium tomorrow!

@sportful @sfitalianathleticclub @equatorcoffees @achieveptc @tripsforkidsmarin @sage.realestategroup @marinservicecourse @jkbrkb #themenkegeoup #onewealthadvisors @gelvio_us

A full long weekend of racing to really get the season going, and more Dolce Vita podiums! The weekend started off with the Cantua Creek Road Race, with @seanbra picking up 🥈in the 35+ 3/4 field, and Gabe picking up 4th and a podium spot in the Elite 3 field. The DVC boys rounded out 3 days of racing at the Cherry Pie Criterium, with @freeframed earning a hard fought 🥉in a huge Elite 4 field, and our man who’s on a mission this season, @jyangsta nearly holding off the field on a race-long solo breakaway for an amazing 🥈in the Elite 3 race.

See you there?

Congrats to @aymenelgorani for 🥇 in the Mission Crit Men's Fixed B race on Saturday and 4th in the Cat 4/5 Giro di SF on Monday! 💪🏻. We had solid results across the team on our home turf 👏🏻

#girodisanfrancisco #dolcevita #thesweetlife #sanfrancisco

We had a double header this weekend with two great races, San Ardo & UCSC in Santa Cruz.

We’re even more stoked for @velopromo’s Dunnigan Hills next weekend.

Dolce Vita will be out in numbers to volunteer and share the good vibes — it’s going to be 🔥

@marcus_alan30 Representing DVC at @usacycling #mastersnationals in Albuquerque this past weekend. Marcus finished just outside the top ten in the road race - and said the altitude was no joke! Way to hold it down for the team!

Thank you to all of the organizers for putting on an epic weekend. And of course we couldn’t have done it without our sponsors.

Copperopolis never disappoints. The rain showed some mercy but the wind and tarmac did not.

The team pushed through and snagged podiums all around. Props to everyone who came out to race despite the gloomy forecast.

E3 🥉 @jyangsta
E4 🥉@paul_climbs_rocks

The Nifty Ten Fifty! 10k feet of climbing over just ~50 miles on some of East Bay’s steepest climbs. This one hurt.

@giuliocollura with the bike throw for 🥈in the E3 field at #snellingroadrace! Also had @kashman93 🥇in the E4 field, and @massimo.costetti 🥈in the Novice field, and The Stallion @virgoproz rounding out our podium results with 🥉in the P12 field! Great results DVC @obbi.cc @sfitalianathleticclub @equatorcoffees @achieveptc @untappedmaple @tripsforkidsmarin @worldbicyclerelief @marinservicecourse @osmonutrition #themenkegeoup #onewealthadvisors

Spotted an OG Dolce Vita jersey in the wild! The style has changed but the vibe remains

#dolcevitacycling #hawkhill #cycling #bayarea #marinheadlands

Here we go — the early season races are in full swing and Cal Aggie did not disappoint 🔥

All the boys did an awesome job of controlling the fields, making breaks and sticking them. Everyone did multiple races with some tripling up!!!

Coast Ride complete. What a weekend! Dolce Vita showed up in big numbers this year. The ride featured perfect weather, town sign sprints and some shared accomplishments with a great community.

Thank you to all of the organizers, the SAG drivers, mechanics and everyone who showed up to make this event possible.

These chilly weekends are perfect for long zone 2 rides and hot @equatorcoffees ☕️. Just watch out for the King Tides on your way back into the city 🌊

It was a muddy weekend at the Barton Park Cross Crusade! It was sweet to get some real cross conditions for a change 🤩

Getting our cross on at Sunday’s Sacramento Cyclocross race series

Congratulations to Harry Elworthy for taking the win at today’s Red Bull Bay Climb mens open! 🍾 🏁 🏆

Another beautiful day in The Bay….

#ncnca #velopromo #cycling

If you can’t tell, we’re pretty excited about the new @equatorcoffees by the Golden Gate Bridge welcome center.

Plenty of beautiful riding in Northern California, and plenty of great riding weather year round! As we head out of the dog days of summer, with end of season goals on our minds and excitement already building for a full 2022 racing season, there’s no time better than the present to put some structure into your training. As Dolce Vita Cycling’s official coaching partner, @achieveptc can help you achieve your bike riding and racing goals! @danawilliams26 and the crew at AchievePTC are fantastic! THE quickest way to begin smashing PR’s and reaching goals is to have a structured and supported training plan. Give the team at AchievePTC a call today!

Another Patterson Pass Road Race in the books! It was hot and punishing like it is every year, but we had plenty of ice socks and ice cold @osmonutrition to to get the boys through it! Congrats to German Zamora for his first win (Novice)! And big ups to our other our podium finishers Aaron Smith (2nd - 35+ Cat 4) and @paul_climbs_rocks (5th - Cat 4) and all the rest of our DVC racers for suffering through and flying the gold and blue! And a huge thank you for our Dolces that came to work the feed zone! On to the next race! Finish line photo: @katieymiu

It’s only been a week since team camp and we’re already missing it

We’d like to provide an extra thank you to @equatorcoffees and @equatorhelen for supplying the drinks, being a great sponsor and for keeping us happy/caffeinated along the way.

And that’s a wrap! The third and final day of team camp started as a recovery ride and evolved into a series of attacks, breakaways and town sign sprints. We wouldn’t have it any other way

Special thanks to @osmonutrition for keeping us hydrated and recovered along the way.

(Sound On) What a performance! @tringohk and our Zwift B squad stole the show last night with a strong win through the cobbled climbs. We ended the race with 4 riders in the top 10. Bravo 🙌 #wtrl @wtrl_racing #zwift

Congratulations to @chester_gillmore for completing the final lap of his legendary Triple Everest this morning. Chester climbed more than 87,000 feet for 368 miles over the course of 50 hours, with temperatures peaking above 100 degrees. 🤯
