From nobody to somebody is both a book and a handbook, a short biography and a concise guide to beginning sports practice, as well as to becoming a coach, trainer, and more.
From nobody to somebody is both a compendium and a diary of experiences, as well as dreams condensed, reduced, and compressed—also because it would take an encyclopedia to contain them all. It is the briefly outlined and concentrated story of Luca Guercilena, the central figure of this book, an ideal guide to explain to those who wish to read, listen, and learn a human story that may not be one of aspiration, but that I hope can be one of inspiration.From nobody to somebody is the synthesis of a journey and a route, a stretch of road and indeed a rather long stage, though not excessively so, because we are still fully in the race.

Luca Guercilena was born in Lodi in August 1973 and grew up in the Milan district of Baggio, where he began racing bicycles for the local team. He graduated from the Higher Institute of Physical Education in Milan with a thesis on the mechanical work of wheels; the following year he began his career as a coach in youth categories before joining the Mapei team in 1997. From 2003 he worked in Belgium with the QuickStep team, and in 2011 he began his experience with Trek
Factory Racing, where in 2014 he became General Manager, a role he still holds today.


"I cannot tell you whether a foolish smile appeared on my face, but I can assure you that inside me there was a unique feeling of lightness mixed with restrained euphoria.
The same feeling I experienced as a child when I managed to find my balance on my bicycle
without relying on training wheels anymore.
There I was, in perfect physical and mental balance, in harmony with the world and with myself, clearly feeling that I had truly gone from zero to one."
