One and a half months to go, the Marcialonga Cycling Craft road race approaches fast. The cycling season has already begun and the popular event in Trentino region looks forward to welcoming hundreds of participants on Sunday 14 June for the 9th running of the race. The Italian OC has recently announced the new start time of 7.30am in Predazzo town centre, right in the heart of Val di Fiemme, and from that time on it will be fun for everybody along the ups and downs of the area surrounded by majestic Dolomites.  
Both courses have been confirmed by the Italian organisers, a 135 km-long Granfondo itinerary facing the three Lavazè, San Pellegrino and Valles alpine passes plus the Monte San Pietro tough climb and the spectacular routes across the provinces of Trento, Bolzano and Belluno. The so-called ‘Long course’ reads 3.279 meters total climb, while the Mediofondo one offers 80 km as a whole including Lavazé Pass, Monte San Pietro and 1.894 meters total climb.
Scicon is the world leader in technical cycling bags and bike transportation and it has recently become the Marcialonga Cycling Craft Official Bike Bag thanks to a partnership with the Italian event that sounds quite appealing for those who will take part into the 2015 competition.
