You will find 8 different routes to discover Monte Avena with car-free roads and refreshment points with entertainment to recharge your energy and have fun in good company. The event is non-competitive: no stopwatch, just the pleasure of cycling.
It is possible to use any type of bicycle (MTB, road, e-bike, gravel).
There are two starting points: the historic Brewery Pedavena with over 100 years of history and the MVC Store in the area between Seren del Grappa and Fonzaso nestled at the foot of Monte Avena and the Grappa massif.
Book your meal voucher at the Brewery Pedavena or at the MVC Store and download the GPS tracks of the routes!
You will be able to discover the Croce d’Aune Pass, which, besides being famous for the beauty of the places it crosses, is known for an episode of the Giro d’Italia that changed the history of cycling.
It is right here that in 1924 a young Tullio Campagnolo, founder of the famous company that produces bicycle components, transforms a misfortune into a flash of genius when, due to frozen hands, he is unable to disassemble and reassemble the wheel. From this moment, the spark ignites that will lead to the invention of the rod shifting mechanism in the following years.
We are waiting for you to make the history of this first edition!
Free roads from cars: just you, your bike, and the silence of nature
