Rondje Palazzo dei Consoli en Tevere

The ride

Roll out of Gubbio and let the road carry you past the Palazzo dei Consoli, a castle that watches over the start, before the Tevere river comes into view along the way. With 1455 m of climbing spread across the route, the day keeps giving you reasons to shift down and settle in. Every metre rolls on paved surface, so the focus stays on the riding and the landscape rather than the ground beneath your wheels. Back into Gubbio you come, full of the kind of tired that feels earned.
