13° ITALIAN CHAMP'S @ RetroAcademy - Saturday 2 May 2015

[Torchiador]

Jorn, it will be for the next year!

[Freshmaker]

I sure hope so. The Italian Champs is huge on my bucket list.

As far as I know, Christopher booked his tickets for Milan too!
Practically speaking, Andy and Chris will play two international class tournaments in two weeks! amazing!
It reminds me the 2010-2011 year, in November I joined the Düsseldorf world cup, 4 months later (on March) I joined the Dubai international - where we recorded the very first KOA official match outside Europe -Robert3-Gianni7 and Robert scored the very first goal, if I'm not wrong - and one month later I joined the Greek Championship.

So we have 3 Brits now. In Italy a saying goes:"il quattro vien da se" literally the meaning is:"after that we have 3, the 4th easy comes. which is like to say: Robert, any plan for the first week end of May???

In the next few days we should have some more info about Mario.
There are good chances to see Fabio R and Massimo M too.

Any news from the Voitsberg dudes?

@ Andy and Christopher:
Once you are at Bergamo Airport (BGY) You have to look for Orio Shuttle or AUTOSTRADALE.They are Buses . You will find them just outside the Arrival at platform 3 (it should be on the right side once you are out in the main street.
http://www.orioshuttle.com/_eng/Orio-al-Serio_Milano-Centrale.cfm
they make the same trip, you can catch the first one you find.
There is a ticket man just outside the Bus. Ask for MILANO CENTRAL STATION Round trip. you'll save some money. Just Mind that if you make the round trip, you have to take the same company when you come back to Bergamo Airport.
There is a bus every 20 minutes.
You will be at Stazione Centrale (Milano Central Station) in 45 minutes.
Once there you have to buy a urban bus ticket (1,5 Euro, you can buy it in bars spread around or inside the Central Station. mind that you cannot buy it on the bus, there is no ticket man there ).you have a short 5 minutes walk to reach the urban bus Stop https://goo.gl/maps/tpvVN to catch the #60 bus. There is no traffic on the evening/night so you will get the Stop "PIAZZA SANTA MARIA DEL SUFFRAGIO" in about 10-15 minutes. Go out, you have arrived.
Once you are in Piazza Santa Maria del Suffragio Stop, you will have this view: https://goo.gl/maps/1Qruj
Cross the street and run towards the church you see on your right side(Santa Maria del Suffragio). keep the church on your right side and walk for 50 meters. you will see the Hotel 22 Marzo on your left. https://goo.gl/maps/K8dyC
It is more difficult to say it that to do it.
Meeting time to start the trip for RetroAcademy is: 07:30 Saturday 2nd May 2015 in front of the Hotel 22 Marzo.

Cool to see the foreigners doing good; though the Italian King and his closest rivals is a hard bunch, obviously.
