What a way to end your season with the classic Il Lombardia which is the final monument event of the year, 2023 was our first visit and we were NOT disappointed. We are based 10km from the start / finish (Cantu) this gives us a nice warm up to the start and it’s a fantastic 4 star hotel.
Our trip enables you to enjoy the Pro race and then take on circa 112km in the Gran Fondo on the Sunday. Our base will be just outside Cantu and a short ride to watch the the Pro race.
We will meet you at Milan Malpensa Airport and it’s circa an hour to drive to our hotel. As part of our package your entry to the event is included as it is with all our events. Should you want your non cycling partner to join then we adjust the price down.
The classic Tour of Lombardy, known as the Race of the Falling Leaves, starts in Como and finishes in Bergamo for the 2023 edition. The often reverse the course so we await which was they go in 2024. The Gran Fondo route takes in two famous climbs Muro Di Sormano (20%+) and the famous “church” as its known Madonna del Ghisallo.
