After weeks of waiting we are happy to announce the final stage of the Coppa Italia Urban Downhill which takes us to the eastern coast of Liguria and exactly to the splendid village of Recco (GE), inside the Golfo Paradiso, on the western slope of the promontory of Mount Portofino, where the athletes will compete on a spectacular course.
At the head of the event there will be the well-tested organizational machine of Portofino bike led by Simone Brescia, already organizer of the Italian Enduro Championship in 2018 and of the Urban Downhill of Santa Margherita Ligure in 2016.
The route will offer an excellent compromise between dirt and asphalt enriched with structures and artificial jumps to increase the spectacle of athletes and spectators.
The paddock area will be on the seafront of Recco where stands and Expo area will be set up. Various brands in the sector and numerous Ligurian retailers have already confirmed their presence.
