Gran Fondo della Versilia 2027

Head to the sublime region of Tuscany, in the heart of the province of Lucca and the seaside resort of Viareggio 🇮🇹. Your body will have to take on a particularly hilly profile if you hope to cross the finish line 🥵.

The asphalt immediately catapults you toward the majestic foothills of the Alps. Your effort forces you to tame formidable, narrow climbs with powerful pedal strokes 🏔️. The immersion becomes utterly fascinating as you ride through the lands of Pietrasanta, a true world capital of marble and bronze craftsmanship 🗿. Cutting through the air on these picturesque roads undeniably gives you a fantastic second wind to pick up the pace again in the tightest bends of the hinterland.

Adrenaline saturates the sea air from the moment the grand start is given on the majestic coastal promenade 🌊. Transalpine fervor turns every little village you pass through into a boiling arena. Forget the silence of Sunday rides—fans bang hard on the barriers to help you defeat merciless gravity! 📣 Getting off the two-wheeler for some active recovery feels like the obvious move. Take your tribe right away to visit the incredible Citadel of the Viareggio Carnival, ten minutes away, to dive into the fascinating world of giant papier-mâché floats 🎭.

Then ride a good half hour inland to walk the immense circular ramparts of Lucca as a duo 🏰. Heading south for forty-five minutes will amaze the kids in front of the legendary Leaning Tower of Pisa 📸. Enjoying an authentic gelato in front of this world monument will magically erase the pain in your battered muscles 🍦. Shift into your best gear, challenge the Tuscan peaks, and come lay down the law on the Riviera! 💥
