In this page you can find some of the projects I love the most. As you can see there's plenty of work stuff,
but I always find some spare time for having fun, learn new things and make foolish experiments.
Toolbox for Strava
A growing set of utilities for the connected rider
I consider Strava one of the greatest invention of mankind. If you are an athlete and especially a cyclist, it can definitely change the way you train. I had some fun experimenting with Strava API and the results were so interesting that I thought: "Hey, I gotta release this thing to the public!". This is how my Toolbox for Strava was born. Appreciated by thousands of users worldwide, this project won the 2nd prize at the 2016 Strava Developer Challange!

Bike Showcase iPhone App
The ultimate mobile app for cycling enthusiasts
I made this free iPhone app in partnership with my friends at Minisimpli as a natural extension of Bike Showcase. The app offers the same huge selection of cute bikes and adds some interesting features. In particular: users can express their votes, generating rankings of the top brands and the most beautiful bikes in the world, sorted by category.

Verbose Watchface for Pebble
For real nerds only
If you own a Pebble smartwatch, you are probably a nerd. And if you are a nerd, you'll love my Verbose Watchface: it shows in a single Pebble window a bunch of data like time, date, battery and BlueTooth connection status, weather conditions... Everything displayed with a terminal-inspired look & feel (no graphics or cool typography this time!).

Bike Showcase
An inspiration point for cycling enthusiasts
Tumblr is such a fantastic tool. I'm using it as a quick and easy CMS for this showcase of cool bicycles I've recently made. I customized the theme with some CSS3 effects, a "search by brand" form with autocomplete and a color filter tool. I'm having fun with this simple but powerful little thing.

Il Grande Ciclismo
Prosopopea della Bicicletta
And here's another experiment on Tumblr. I had felt the need of this new space on the web since I discovered that a small photocamera fits perfectly in the backpocket of my cycling uniform... Just add a nice vintage touch to the pictures and you can turn any bicycle ride into a heroic endeavor worthy of Fausto Coppi or Gino Bartali.
