La Romagna del Pirata on the routes of Marco Pantani

Here the ascents are steep and ruthless, the first ascent you meet after riding on the plain makes you slow down and bite your calves if you don’t take the right pace. And it is precisely here, in the eastern part of Emilia Romagna and the Marche, that the Pirate trained for his fantastic breakaways. His way of telling his rivals “follow me if you have the strength”. Sea and mountains, different worlds, opposites. Loneliness and beauty, nature and open spaces. Sea and mountains, two universes made of roads and pedals, of sweat and frames, of single men in command, of climbing and descents on two wheels. We will experience the places and streets of Marco Pantani in his shining career. We will ride on two of the climbs that trained his legs, crossing wonderful territories in that Romagna that has always been the home of great champions.
