The event will also be an opportunity to present "a cycle tourism promotion project of the Union of Municipalities of the Reggio Emilia Apennines which concerns a circular path that will unite all the municipalities".
This was announced by Vanni Grazioli and Gian Luca Legori, founders and managers of MTB Vetto who add: “Compared to other years where we organized daily rallies with the participation of around a hundred people, this year we decided to change the type of event. There will be two days dedicated to mountain biking, with the collaboration of shopkeepers in the province of Reggio Emilia. You will have the opportunity to test the latest innovations in the sector thanks to the bike tests offered by the best shops in Reggio Emilia and beyond, trying the bicycles and components on trails specially designed to test the skills of bikers. You will also be able to visit an exhibition of mountain bike products, from technical clothing to the latest innovations in terms of wrapping and special components."
“It is an event – conclude Grazioli and Legori – which allows us to bring people to know the Vetto area, a path near the city, quickly reachable for nice mountain bike rides. This event will be the first of many."
During the event there will be a signposted trail that will lead through breathtaking landscapes and exciting paths, offering unforgettable experiences. For those who request it, there will also be the possibility of taking part in guided excursions with MTB guides.
Between one test and another you can enjoy delicious dishes prepared with passion and for those who want to spend the night immersed in the beauty of nature, they can stop with their camper at the Chug-a-Lug Village.
Mandatory online registration is required for bike tests. Free subscription.
