About Granfondo Milano-Sanremo
The legendary amateur cycling race
The Granfondo Milano-Sanremo is the amateur version of the famous cycling classic, finishing in Sanremo (province of Imperia). Founded in 1970, it is considered the most famous Italian amateur cycling race: it covers about 296 kilometers from the outskirts of Milan to the Ligurian Sea coast, allowing amateur cyclists to experience the thrill of the 'Classicissima'.
In the footsteps of the champions
The route follows that of the professional race, including the iconic climbs of the Cipressa and the Poggio di Sanremo. It is a test of endurance that requires preparation and determination, but offers the satisfaction of cycling on the same routes as the greats of cycling, all the way to the finish line in the city of flowers.
An adventure on two wheels
Open to amateur cyclists, the granfondo attracts enthusiasts from all over Italy and abroad every year. More than a race, it is a collective experience that celebrates the cycling culture of the Riviera dei Fiori, a region deeply connected to great cycling and the professional Milano-Sanremo.
