In Capital of the Veronese Enduro it was decided to take a dip into the past with an event that will appeal to those who have seen mountain biking grow and develop over the years with ever more technological and cutting-edge means where every obstacle seems like a game…But was it once like this?

No telescopic, no disc brakes but only handle. This is the Rampichino.
Ma to have FUN there will also be in this 1st Edition that we have decided to keep "light" and, if you like, to make it more important in future editions.
It will be considered a real meeting therefore without a ranking and without any sign of competition, there will be two routes on which the event will take place, a long track and a short one, only for those who will do their utmost on the long one there will be a small final recognition based on some criteria decided by the "jury" in group.
Always only for the long route there will be requirements to be respected, while for the short everything is free in order to give anyone the opportunity to participate and still enjoy the ride in company.
Below is a mini regulation and the general program of the event:
Valid only for the long route
- MTB 26” wheels (no 27 or 29), for this first edition we don't want to be too strict therefore disc brakes are allowed but the use of the telescopic handler is absolutely forbidden.
Timeline
- Long – 35 km for 1200 mtr in altitude, open only to 26′ inch bikes;
- Short – 20km for an altitude difference of 800m, open to everyone (even e-bikes).
Prize giving
- A jury will select the best 10 historic bike+clothing kits;
- To be part of the award ceremony, the athlete must have completed the long route.
Event registration price €20.
Control points will be set up for both routes to guarantee the regularity and honesty of those who participate.
After the event, there will be a rich gastronomic service on the theme of the event, lots of partying and lots of music!
