Dainese Legends December 2 IN THE LATE 1960S, LINO DAINESE MADE AN EPIC TRIP FROM ITALY TO LONDON ON A VESPA MOTORCYCLE. IN LONDON, HE CAME ACROSS SOME OF THE FIRST 500CC MOTORCYCLES AND FELL IN LOVE WITH THEM. FROM THAT MOMENT, HE WAS INSPIRED TO CREATE HIS OWN COMPANY IN THE WORLD OF MOTORCYCLES. AND BY 1972, HE HAD REALISED THIS DREAM, FOUNDING DAINESE IN MOLVENA, ITALY. DAINESE’S AIM WAS TO HELP MOTORCYCLE RIDERS EMBRACE SPEED, MOVEMENT AND FREEDOM, BUT WITH ADDED SAFETY AND PROTECTION. SINCE THIS TIME, DAINESE HAS HELPED THOSE INVOLVED IN WIDER ACTION SPORTS SUCH AS SKIING, SNOWBOARDING, MOUNTAIN BIKING AND EQUESTRIANISM ACHIEVE THE VERY SAME. TO MARK THIS FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF INNOVATION, DAINESE HAS CREATED A SERIES OF FOUR DIGITAL MAGAZINES TO CELEBRATE THE FOUR DECADES OF LEGENDARY PEOPLE, PLACES AND PRODUCTS THAT HAVE HELPED CHANGE THEIR WORLD. IN THIS FOURTH ISSUE, WE EXPLORE THE 2000S. THIS DECADE WITNESSED THE RISE AND INEVITABLE CLASH OF TWO PRESTIGIOUS MOTORCYCLE RACING TALENTS, VALENTINO ROSSI AND MAX BIAGGI, AS WELL AS THE INSPIRING STORY OF OSCAR PISTORIUS AND SOME SERIOUSLY ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY.

The tyre has been designed to produce improved lap and race times tyres for Customer Competition and road use. and due to its increased grip Michelin will be looking to set many records as the season progresses. Initially tested in-house in laboratory conditions, the latest MICHELIN Power Slick rear tyre was then extensively assessed by the MotoGP field throughout 2019, before Michelin was granted the unique opportunity to analyse the new construction during a race weekend - the first time a test such as this had been conducted during a MotoGP weekend - when a session at the demanding Phillip Island circuit in Australia was totally dedicated to a tyre test. Michelin then supplied the tyre for further examination during the two Spanish tests at the end of 2019, at Valencia and Jerez respectively.
