This year we will take you to some of the most remote places in Ticino. These roads are unpaved and less traveled and will lead the way to the Checkpoints – and more important, to the Dolci!
Enjoy the preview-video of what amazing places the hunt for Dolci will take you to!
We are very happy to share exact locations of our six Checkpoints for this years DEAD ENDS & dolci. It will be a little less distance – but some more climbing. The idea behind this, is not to make you suffer. But to bring you to the most stunning places. And we want to make sure, that you can enjoy a full weekend of riding. Yes, the very fastest of you will be back in one day – but prepare to be out there for more than one day.
It will be a mixed-surface ride. But no need for a Mountainbike or fat and chunky tires. Something fast rolling with some comfort (40-45 mm width) will be the best option – it’s not made for roadbikes!!
The Gravel to reach the checkpoints is of good quality and only the last few hundred meters towards some Checkpoints can involve some hike-a-bike. The most important thing will be gears!! Bring the easiest gears you can find!
Our goal is to offer you the best possible riding in Ticino. Therefore we have a layer of roads, which riders aren’t allowed to ride on. Mainly ugly and dangerous mainroads, and some to spice things up a little. 😉
(riders are allowed to cross these roads in a direct way)
