If you haven't had enough, you can ride steeply back up Monte Ceneri in the footsteps of the ancient Romans. The excess daily calories are burned off again before the finisher drink in the event village of the ÖKK BIKE REVOLUTION gives you fresh energy again.

The Romans did not yet have asphalt and rollers. So it stands to reason that the path was laid out with ordinary stones. So you will find a rather bumpy path. When it's wet, it gets slippery too. But it is and remains an experience.
