Granfondo Fabio Casartelli
Friday 17 July to Sunday 19 July 2009Who can forget the scenes of the 1995 Tour de France? Fabio Casartelli had already made a big impression by winning the 1992 Olympic road title. But on the descent of Col de Portet-d'Aspet, his life was brutally cut short. His memory lives on in La Granfondo Fabio Casartelli, which is organised every year to raise funds for the foundation that was set up after his death. The event starts in his home town of Albese con Cassano near Como and takes in some of the same roads ridden by Casartelli.See full information
Granfondo Colnago
Friday 04 September to Monday 07 September 2009Colnago is the name that epitomises Italian cycling - virtually every race on the calendar has been won on a Colnago. With names like Merckx, Saronni, Cipollini and Museuuw the roll call of Colnago’s riders reads like a who’s who of the last four decades of both Italian and World cycling. The 2009 edition will be the fifth Granfondo Colnago to be held in the rolling hills that surround the city of Piacenza in Emilia Romagna, Colnago’s home. This region is one of Italy’s hidden treasures, with its small mountains and lush green valleys it is the perfect location for a Granfondo.See full information
