The ride
68.6 km with 1540 m of climbing — that's a day with some proper ups and downs. The surface is 98% paved and 3% unpaved, so plan accordingly. Along the way you cross the spartiacque between the Tyrrhenian and Ionian coasts, then the one between the African and Tyrrhenian coasts, and you pass Portella Tre Fontane. Ride it at your own pace and enjoy the mix.
