As usual, appointment at 9 am. We drink a good coffee at the Mon Cafè, next to Closer, who welcomes us in his fantastic outdoor area.

We are ready, 30 passionate cyclists and their road or gravel bikes, loaded more than ever to tackle the 45km route organized by Ludo that retraces the great classics of the Emilia tours.

We leave the city behind to reach two pearls of the Modena hills.

Passing through Castelnuovo Rangone, we reach Levizzano Rangone, a magnificent place in the first hills of Modena. Surely they will also have been the first climbs of our exit, but above all the view of the Levizzano castle almost leave everyone breathless!

We continue our journey and arrive in Castelvetro, after having faced some more challenging climbs, but always with a smile, we reach the main stage of the Modena exit.

Certainly among the most evocative places in the area, it is a beautiful ancient village nestled in the hills, known by cyclists and wine lovers, as the land of production of the renowned Lambrusco Grasparossa. As soon as you enter the historic main square, the party bells start ringing. No doubt about it, an unforgettable welcome and perfect timing !!

After taking the classic ritual photos we leave to return to Modena where fresh drinks and good food await us from the friends of Mon Cafè.
