CWN Editor's Note: On June 1, Pope Leo addressed and blessed cyclists competing in the Giro d’Italia, an annual bicycle race.
“I felt in my heart that I had to say ‘thank you’ to the Pope as a cyclist but above all as a Colombian, as a man of faith who is part of the people of Latin America where, before being elected Pope, he was a missionary in nearby Peru,” said cyclist Nairo Quintana.
