Dear Cyclist:

It’s almost time … the wolf of Manghen is just around the corner, waiting for you.

And if you’re not among the riders planning to challenge him? The Medio route of the Sportful Dolomiti Race, with its 133 kilometers and 3,050 meters of elevation gain, is equivalent to the long route in any other granfondo!

This year, race packets can also be picked up at the ice rink

Sunday morning from 5:30 to 6:30

  

Those REGISTERED AS INDIVIDUALS who need to pick up a ONE-DAY LICENSE (€15 cost) must go first to the license desk, before picking up their race packets, and present their medical certification of fitness for competitive CYCLING, NOT TRIATHLON.
