GIS Gelati Jolly Pro Cycling Team (Italy) - 1978 to 1991
GIS Gelati was the primary sponsor for many years, and secondary sponsors came and went. This period with Jolly was 1987 & 1988. GIS was certainly Italian ice cream and Jolly was an Italian footwear company.
Team members through the whole term (78 to 91) contained every Italian of note but at different times … from Moser to Saronni to Chioccioli. The 1987 and 1988 years were comparatively lean results wise - Johan Van de Velde won some Giro stages but team support was meagre in Adriano Baffi (sprinter), Franco Chioccioli (Tour rider), sprinters Pettito & Masciarelli.
Van der Velde did a legendary ride in the snow on the Gavia Pass in the ‘88 Giro (won by Andy Hampsten).
