The continental event will therefore return to Italy after 7 years, the last edition was in fact held in Spilimbergo (PN) in 2018.

It is a great result for all the staff of Asd Genoa Bike who have managed the event with passion and care since the end of the last century, which will celebrate its 26th edition on the last weekend of May. We are therefore talking about a historic race, which over the years has gone through the evolution of Italian mountain biking, accompanying it with challenges that are always uncertain and populated by big names.

It is clear that the dress rehearsals for the European appointment two years later will already take place in the 2023 edition. Many bikers, even foreigners, will want to come to Casella for an initial contact with the route and the event, to discover its secrets and then prepare the 2025 campaign in the best possible way. We remind you that registrations are already open for the spring event and until until 31 January you will pay only 40 euros, with the possibility of choosing between the 78 km Marathon route with a difference in altitude of 2.500 meters or the more affordable Granfondo route of 36 km and 1.200 metres.

[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').
