There's a reason why so many cycle riders look forward to L'Erocia. It has a mix of excellent cycle routes, different route distances so that you can tailor it toward your requirements, and you get to cycle through such beautiful scenery.
The end of season event at L'Erocia has a unique atmosphere thanks to the sections of Tuscan dirt roads and because almost all of the riders use vintage bikes and wear traditional style wool clothing.
The route winds thru striking Tuscan country near Siena and the sections on the white roads or farm tracks takes you back to what it must have been like racing in the 40's and 50's. Going Vintage is a great way to saviour the friendship of cycling
The charm of this event remains unchanged and every year it sees the collusion of countless people from across the world.
In year 2011, 4,009 riders took part from around the globe. What matters for?? L'Eroica is the love for cycling and the rediscovery of roads that haven't been violated by time and asphalt.
Routes that cross the lovely hills of the Sienese landscape. There are 4 routes available to participants: the longest is 205 km of which 110km is on unpaved roads: the second winds along at 135Km, of which 70km of unpaved roads: the third is 75km, of which 35km are on unpaved roads. The selection concludes with the shortest route of 38km, of which 10km is on unpaved roads. The exit is also staggered, dependent on the route selected :at 5am for people that have chosen the longest path to 8.30am for those doing the 3rd and 4th routes.
