VENETO REGION & VENETOGO SOCIAL RIDE

VENETO REGION & VENETOGO SOCIAL RIDE

In our experience, we think you will enjoy this specific tour if you are a cyclist with good bike handling skills, ability to accomplish multiple climbs of moderate grade (6-7%), the fitness to be on the bicycle for 4-5 hours a day, and the ability to ride safely with other cyclists in a line.

The Granfondo also includes some steeper climbs and gravel sections on the longer route, so experience with these conditions is suggested.

EXPLORE THE VENETO “DREAMLAND” 

SEE TWO PRO RACES, ONE ROAD, ONE GRAVEL

Ex-Pro Filippo Pozzato loves bike racing and this region so he combined them for all to enjoy. In Dreamland’s “Serenissima” race, pros fight it out on hilly gravel climbs, while the “Veneto Classic” is a major end-of-season road showdown. Watch both from perfect positions in Dreamland, and cheer on the winner of the Classic from the finish line VIP party.

EXPLORE THE VENETO “DREAMLAND”

Enjoy the scenic twists and turns up Monte Grappa’s legendary route 8% grade, 19k route, a Giro favorite. Our other rides in this diverse region north of Venice will follow rivers that tumble out of the mountains, take us to the castle at Cittadella, and cross the Palladio bridge built in1569, an engineering marvel and renowned symbol of “The Dreamland”.

ENJOY THE VENETOGO SOCIAL FONDO

With the background of the Dolomites, the route for the Venetogo social fondo is beautiful and challenging, including sections faced by the pros.  Choose the distance that’s right for you, and enjoy the socializing and good food at the rest breaks.  

EXPLORE BEAUTIFUL BASSANO

Stand on the 13th century Ponte Vecchio bridge over the Fiume Brenta and ponder the bullet holes in the nearby buildings.  The strategic location is an important part of centuries of Italian history, from the power of the doges to world wars.  Today, grappa bars and shops featuring beautiful Italian design offer the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful city.
