Ride in Italy from home, across 4 great passes in the Dolomites

ATTENTION NEW DATE: FRIDAY, MAY 1ST!

On May 31, we were supposed to organize the 14th Marcialonga Craft, but due to obvious reasons, the event was moved to May 30th, 2021.
In the meantime, we joined with enthusiasm the first virtual circuit of Italian Granfondo promoted by ENDU in cooperation with three other events, offering a unique experience that could maintain our love for road biking, riding with other passionate on the most beautiful climbs in Italy, directly from your home.
The circuit will start with the Virtual Granfondo Internazionale Gavia e Mortirolo on Saturday, April 25th. Virtual Granfondo Marcialonga Craft will follow on Sunday, April 26th, the Virtual Granfondo La Fausto Coppi – Officine Mattio will be on Friday, May 1st and finally the Virtual GF Sportful Dolomiti Race will take place on Sunday, May 3rd. All the events will start at 9.00 AM (CEST). 
Such an experience is dedicated to all the athletes that are training on rollers right now.

THE COURSE

Whithin our virtual Granfondo, we are proposing the Predazzo - Passo San Pellegrino segment: one of the most engaging Passes of the Dolomites for those who have already tried it and a brand new experience for those who have chosen the medium race in the past. 
To get to know the best way to face the climb, read the interview with Pietro Dutto, former biathlon athlete of the Italian national team and strong road biker who took part to Marcialonga Craft last year.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

WITH CLASSICAL ROLLERS OR SPIN BIKE

It is also possible to participate using a classical roller or a spinbike, with or without speed or cadence sensors.
You can take part to the race as a “watcher”, this means following one of the participants having smart rollers and so simulating climbs, flat land and downhills.
At the end of the performance you will have to send a gpx/tcx/fit file or an image that demonstrates the your participation, to be included to the ranking. Following the ENDU live stream, you will be able to follow the comments and the incitements of the speaker!

THE LIVE STREAMING

The virtual event will be streamed live on the ENDU and Marcialonga channels, commented by famous cycling speakers such as Paolo Mei, Paolo Mutton together with other guests, riding with great champions. 

THE MARCIALONGA AMBASSADORS

Together with us, riding the virtual Marcialonga Craft, we will find Cristian Zorzi “Zorro”, Stefano Cecchini, members of the Team Trentino Robinson, of the Sottozero Gold Team, Andrea Pasqualon, Pietro Dutto and the Marcialongirls Federica and Cristina.

CHARITY

Your participation and your satisfaction when crossing the finish line, will also help the Italian Civil Protection. In fact, 1,00 Euro will be given to the institution per each finisher, to help them facing the Covid-19 emergency.
