Huddled beneath the soaring bell town of a solitary red brick church near the northern Italian town of Treviglio there lies a secluded labyrinth of buildings. The gates and fences are painted in the iconic mint-green 'celeste' of the venerable Italian bike marque, "Bianchi." This secretive complex in Lombardy is the modern headquarters of one of the world's most stylish and respected bike manufacturers which was founded 130 years ago by the Italian engineer and inventor Edoardo Bianchi.
