The Spoleto - Norcia Umbrian cycle path is beautiful, created from the old train route 🚂 between tunnels, overpasses, wonderful views of the Umbrian countryside, lots of greenery 🌿 and a smooth dirt road surface. We only do part of it, starting from the splendid Spoleto (where we wander randomly to discover every corner), up to Santa Anatolia, where signage …

Beautiful but challenging route, necessary training and the basics of technique (downhill).
After Scheggino you climb uninterruptedly and never flattens, there are even 20% tears.

September 3, 2023,Spoleto Norcia 2023 - Giro Classic (con i mitici ciclisti sbandati e mogli)

Classic Tour of Spoleto Norcia 2023. Notes for those wishing to follow the trail. 1) Koomot exaggerated the height difference; the real one just exceeds 1300 2) I turned off Koomot in the parking lot two hours after the end of the ride; you can avoid the last meters 😁

Beautiful MTB ride. Perfectly organized, I just don't understand why they didn't keep the race format: that way, those with competitive ambitions could start early and get a final ranking, while everyone else, myself included, starting later, pedaled at a touring pace.

Pleasant route with splendid views.
It is important to be well trained especially for the return climb; we had 80 km in our legs for about 500 m of altitude difference.
There are several tunnels and they are all without lighting, it is therefore necessary to have an adequate light source with you, that of the Smart phone is not …
