Eroica
L’Eroica is a cycling event that has gained notoriety over the years. It was born in Gaiole in Chianti, in the green and luxuriant heart of the Tuscany hills. Amateur cyclists take part in the non-competitive event, following the traditions of the “eroico” cyclist – they have to use a vintage bicycle and wear vintage bicycle gear as they ride the dusty country lanes known as “strade bianche”.
The original idea is from Giancarlo Brocci and his passion for cycling from a bygone era, in which the values of hard work, love for nature and a more peaceful life were the masters.
