About Handcycling Race Carate

The Handcycling Race Carate Brianza is now a fixed event on the Italian paraclimbing calendar and a moment of great sporting and social value for the area. Organized by ASD ONLUS Piccoli Diavoli 3 Ruote with the patronage of the Municipality of Carate Brianza, the event combines the competitive dimension of official handbike races with the educational and inclusive dimension of activities dedicated to schools. A day when sport becomes a tool for inclusion, determination, and passion, with athletes arriving from various Italian regions and abroad.

Paralympic sport takes center stage in Carate

In Carate Brianza, in the Province of Monza and Brianza, the Handcycling Race by PD3R is the great paraclimbing festival. Organized by the association Piccoli Diavoli 3 Ruote ASD ONLUS with the patronage of the Municipality and the support of the Lombardy Region, the race is part of the Italian Cycling Federation - Paralympic Sector calendar and is considered a national benchmark for the handbike discipline.

A day in two parts

The event is divided into two distinct moments. In the morning, the children are the protagonists: inclusive sports activities and introduction to Paralympic sports are organized for students of primary, secondary, and high schools, in collaboration with the Parents' Association of Carate Brianza and other local organizations. In the afternoon, there is space for official handcycling races, with athletes from various Italian regions and abroad, for a competition of high technical and human level.

The spirit of the event

More than just a race, the Handcycling Race is a manifesto of inclusion. Sport here becomes a universal language of determination and passion, capable of breaking down barriers and raising public awareness, especially among young people, about the values of paraclimbing. The start and finish are hosted at the Brianza Plastica area.

A growing event

Now in its fifth edition, the event has grown to become an anticipated occasion, capable of involving schools, families, and enthusiasts. For the community of Carate Brianza, it represents a moment of pride and participation around the values of sport for all.
