Granfondo Luca Avesani
Granfondo Luca Avesani is a gran fondo-style mass-participation ride in Verona, Italy, scheduled for May 1, 2027, covering roughly 72 miles.
About riding in Italy
Italy has a deep cycling culture, with dramatic Alpine and Dolomite climbs in the north, rolling hills in Tuscany and long coastal routes in the south. Many gran fondos here follow famous climbs from professional racing. Late spring and early autumn have the best weather, with high summer often very hot.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 72 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 7h 09m |
| 12 mph | 5h 58m |
| 14 mph | 5h 06m |
| 16 mph | 4h 28m |
| 18 mph | 3h 58m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
