Amongst all the off-road cycling events within the area, the Veneto Trail definitly stands out. An absolute breathtaking route, which was very obviously setup by a very passionate cyclist for like-minded passionate cyclists.

Shocked by the loss Fede decided to tribute a ride to him, 6 months after the notification of Iohan’s passing had made its round last year Fede hit the road.

With us our family member Andy Cox - builder of the European Divide Trail - and rather on the road all alone, all the time. Read his thoughts about this year’s Tuscany Trail here.
