With his Olympic medal and a new contract in hand, Viviani said he will refocus on road results as he 🎐looks toward the next two seaso𒊎ns.

"When we talked about my new contract we also spoke about my biggest goals for the next two years, and I want to try and win my dream race, Milan-San Remo. That's on the top of my list, and I'd also like to go back to the Giro d'Italia after what happened this year. I had a bad time at the Giro, and I'd like to be a prot𒆙agonist of the race in 2017. The red jersey will be a big focus."
