Granfondo La Fausto Coppi

The international granfondo La Fausto Coppi Le Alpi del Mare 2017 has now opened registrations.
The event, which will start on the 9th of July 2017 in Cuneo, Italy, celebrates its 30th birthday!

Different ideas are being contemplated as to how to celebrate this birthday. As to now, all cyclists that will have their 30th birthday in 2017 (born in 1987) will pay only 30€ for their entry fee, no matter when they register. Everyone else will also pay a discounted price of 35€ if they register before the 31st of December 2016.

The routes will be the same as in 2016, with the mediofondo counting 111 km (2550 m difference in height), and the granfondocounting 177 km (4125 , difference in height).

As is the tradition, the starting grids will be abolished in favor of a charity project: “let’s save the mountain roads”.

As well as in 2016 the granfondo will be part of the “Nord Ovest Rod Cup” series. Cyclists who register in the four competitions of the series will get a 20% on each of the four enrollment fees.
