The Grand Raid BCVS is one of the races with the most history (32nd edition) and the hardest in the UCI calendar with its 5000m of altitude! Departure logistics in Verbier, an alpine village in the canton of Valais, Switzerland and arrival in Grimentz.

In the last 35 km there are 1.845 meters of elevation gain with the dreaded Pas de Lona. The last big climb, where you have to overcome more than 1.400 meters in altitude and where the last 250 meters in altitude must be done with a nice portage, through a trekking path that leads to the highest point of the climb, almost 2.800 meters high. Let's imagine the fatigue after all these kilometers and hours of running.

[email protected] I am a fan of everything that has 2 wheels: at a young age I practiced road and track cycling (Italian Allievi champion). At the age of 18 I passed into the cross country competing at national/international level as an Under23. Past Elite, I made the choice to take things more lightly from a training point of view, and my love for gravity disciplines was born, training me as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made passion my profession by managing 2 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Bike Center Elba and Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
