Heir of the 3T Bike, of which it took up the baton in 2022, Valsugana Wild Ride is thus already promoted to the decisive appointment of the 2023 season, when it will see all the best of the national long-distance movement confronting each other just a week before the World Championship. , scheduled in Glasgow on Sunday 5th August.

“Since the launch of the new Valsugana Wild Ride project, we have focused on the idea of ​​hosting this Italian championship, which is fundamental to consolidating the new path we have started,” commented the leader of the Organizing Committee Enrico d'Aquilio. "We are grateful to the Italian Cycling Federation for having positively evaluated our technical and organizational credentials, and we can't wait to measure ourselves against this new challenge."

The contenders for the tricolor jersey will have to compete with a path, that of Valsugana Wild Ride, challenging and technical, immersed in the beauty of the Lagorai group, with that wild soul that characterizes the context and the race - starting from the name.

However, the challenge for the Italian titles will be only the spearhead of a broader program: an event dedicated to the world of cycling, and of MTB in particular, which will live in the four municipalities involved in the event - Telve, Telve di Sopra, Torcegno. and Carzano - throughout the week, and open to all categories of bikers, from the youngest to the most experienced. In fact, it should be remembered that participation in the event will not be restricted to members of the competitive categories. This year Valsugana Wild Ride will be included, as usual, in the Trentino MTB Circuit, but also in Rampitek and in the newborn Triveneto MTB Circuit.

“In the new route inaugurated in 2022, even more than in the past, Valsugana Wild Ride embraces the objective of enhancing the territory and its cycling offer, which is so important in the destination tourism strategy,” explains D'Aquilio. "For this reason, the Italian Championship will be the occasion and the flywheel of a set of initiatives that we intend to develop, and on which we have already begun to discuss with our partners, starting with the Municipalities, APT Valsugana Lagorai and Trentino Marketing, in addition to the sponsors that give always accompany our journey.
