The “La Storia del Sic” Gallery is spread across three thematic rooms, curated by Marco’s mom and dad, Rossella and Paolo Simoncelli, with the collaboration of Aldo Drudi, the historic designer of Sic’s helmet graphics and a close friend of the rider. It is an emotional journey that allows visitors to truly step into Sic’s world: with the exception of just a few items kept in display cases, bikes, trophies, helmets, and personal belongings can be touched and experienced up close. A one-of-a-kind experience, envisioned by the Simoncelli Family to create an authentic, direct connection between the public and Marco’s story, values, and passion.
