Change the route but the fun doesn't change - we can assure you. The splendid scenery of the Apennines with its ridges and scenic beauty remain the trademark of the race, while for you bikers the roots, stones and uneven terrain will continue to entertain you and sweat from stage to stage.
Our philosophy remains intact: go on an adventure on natural and unpredictable terrain to conquer personal success in an epic challenge.
