The Granfondo degli Squali reaches its tenth edition in 2025 and, like every year, the event will be held on two routes: a shorter one of 85 km with 1393 mt of elevation gain and maximum gradient of 8 percent and the other of 128 km with an elevation gain instead of 2020 mt and maximum gradient of 14 percent.
Both routes will touch the hills of Romagna and Marcheterritories that seem almost designed especially for bicycle lovers.
They start from the Cattolica Aquarium-which is about 800 metres from our hotel-and the various stops include Morciano, Saludecio, San Leo and Mercatino Conca, in the heart of the Conca Valley. Then on to Tavullia and finally to the San Bartolo overview.
The race ends Gabicce Monte and at the arrival the usual grilled blue fish and piadinasymbol of our land.
The SQUALI 46 is also confirmed for 2025
In honour of Valentino Rossi and Tavullia, a third route suitable for everyone of - of course - 46 km. Racing bike, MTB or even e-bike, this route is for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the area without the nagging of the stopwatch.
It always starts from the Aquarium with a stop at the refreshment point in the centre of Tavullia, and calmly restarts towards Gabicce Monte.
The registration fee is 46 euros and part of the proceeds will be donated to Prima Coccola, the association that gives support to the families of children who need treatment in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Rimini Hospital.
SHARK ARENA
The Shark Arena will be set up at the Cattolica Aquarium, 49,000 square metres in which more than 70 exhibitors will be present. A real animated village to welcome all cycling fans with many dedicated events.
