For 2012, about everyone that rides a bike or have a passion for everything Italian,here is just something about the names Pinarello, Campagnolo, Cima Campo... Well maybe not the last one, if you have ever done the Gran Fondo Sporful in Feltre !!!
Based in the small town of Feltre, in the
foothills of the Dolomites, this Campagnolo sponsored event is a
real must. A superb course takes you over some fantastic climbs and
through some of Italy's most treasured countryside. There are
several distances to choose from 92, 124 and 208 km all going out
on a circular route starting and finishing in the small town of
Feltre.
Starting from the town of Feltre (the home of Granfondo Sportful) on 17th June 2012 the route quickly climbs into the Dolomites tackling legendary climbs of the Croce D'Aune and Passo di Rolle. The highest point of the route comes after 136 km with the Passo di Valles at 2032m. After 215km you return to Feltre with over 5000m of climbing in the legs!
For who decided to join to us for this important bike event we suggest accommodation at the excellent 4 star Boutique Hotel Dei Chiostri located along the Prosecco wine road about 30 minutes far from Feltre with special rates for the partecipants.

Finally the other ride event is the new La
Prosecco Cycling Classic (Granfondo
del Prosecco) on
October 7th in
Valdobbiadene.
The new event for who loves the cycling vacation.
The eighth edition of the Prosecco Cycling Classic will take place on October 7th 2012, starting from and arriving in Valdobbiadene passing through the ascend to Arfanta in the heart of proseccoland region.
The two route options, 128km (2100m
of climbing) and 68km (980m of climbing), wind through the
vineyards that produce the delicious Prosecco sparkling wine.
Situated at the foot of the Dolomite Alps the rolling hills between
Valdobbiadene and Conegliano are marked by winding roads that
stretch through lush fields of Prosecco grapes. Since the early
1800s, the Prosecco grape has been cultivated exclusively in the
hilly region of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene in
the province of Treviso, where the combination of loam rock,
sandstone, a southern exposure of the hills, and the mild climate
creates the ideal environment for the robust vine. This year a gift
made from forged steel will be awarded to the participant that has
traveled the furthest distance to the event.
On the eve of the competition, cyclists that decided to book a room at Boutique Hotel dei Chiostri are welcomed to visit Villa Sandi, in Crocetta del Montello where, through tastings of local products and guided visits to the wineries, the 10 km wines gallery and the Palladian Villa, they can discover one of the most typical products of the rich range of foods and wines of Treviso area: Prosecco.
