MV Agusta: a “Turismo Veloce Europe Endurance” challenge for the new Turismo Veloce

On the occasion of the summer solstice, riding one MV Agusta Turismo Veloce, we will try to conquer a world record: crossing the largest number of countries by motorbike in the space of 24 hours. A baptized challenge TVEE, or Turismo Veloce Europe Endurance, taking inspiration from the TEE or Trans Europe Express, the train which from 1957 to 1991, before high speed, was the fastest way to cross the continent.

Information

The attempt involves MV Agusta and the journalist Valerio Boni will be carried out respecting the speed limits present in the various countries.
The journalist will travel riding an example of Turismo Veloce Lusso SC, a model designed with the comfort of those traveling in mind, also considering aerodynamic protection, as well as refinements regarding torque and consumption. Also highlighted is the MV Ride App.

Along with the record of the greatest number of countries crossed, this commitment will also represent a challenge from the Iron Butt Association, “World's Toughest Motorcycle Riders” (the toughest motorcyclists in the world), obtaining the SaddleSore 1600K and the SaddleSore 2000K, certifications for those motorcyclists who they travel 1.600 and 2.000 km respectively in the space of 24 hours. The total length that can be covered in this marathon will be just over 2.000 km.
Valerio Boni, 62 years old, 44 of which spent in the saddle as a journalist for well-known national magazines, is a driving enthusiast with a predisposition for long-distance trials. He was one of the first Italians registered in African rallies, debuting and driving the small Cagiva 125 to the finish line in Morocco and Egypt. A fan of 24-hour challenges, as demonstrated by his recent achievement of the Guinness World Record on a minibike a month ago.
Valerio Boni will start from Malmö in Sweden until reaching the Schiranna factory, as reported, after having touched 11 countries: Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein and Italy.
