COLNAGO GARDA GRAVEL
2 routes, to be covered in “self-sufficiency” or with the “Angel Passion”, will give life to the “Colnago Garda Gravel”. An adventure for everyone (to take part to this event, is required a non-agonistic medical certificate): the GPS itinerary will be available to subscribers via email or to pick up the rack pack the day before the event and there will be no time limit, so subscribers will be able to live their experience on two wheels in full autonomy and at your own pace or alongside the Angel Passion guides at the pre-established pace of 10.13 or 16 km / h.
The Colnago Garda Gravel experience is one of a kind. To make the weekend enjoyable and relaxing, the two routes must always start on the lakefront of Desenzano del Garda, with the possibility of cycling one or two days. The two routes will cross unique locations and panoramas, where history and nature merge into two itineraries close to each other but at the same time with completely different landscapes and totally unique and spectacular features.
- Friday 10th April: “Sentieri della Battaglia” – departure along the Cesare Battisti Lakeside at 9.30 a.m. 80 km with 950 m of elevation gain with the possibility of covering a shorter itinerary of 60 km. Arrival in Desenzano del Garda.
- Saturday 11th April: “Terra del Garda” – departure along the Cesare Battisti Lakeside at 9.30 a.m. 64 km with 1100 m of elevation gain with the possibility of covering a shorter itinerary of 36 km. Arrival in Padenghe sul Garda.
To make it unique are the 2 novelties of the Gravel World:
If you want to ride in company you can choose to ride alongside the “Angel Passion” certified guides by the Garda Academy who know the 2 routes and will guide you along the 2 wonderful itineraries at 3 different averages, 10km / h – 13km / h- 16km / h excluding stops in the cellars of 15 minutes for each stop. And that’s not all: participants are given the opportunity to stop in the various partner wineries of the event where they can experience local hospitality and taste local products.
