The second stage of the Emilia-Romagna enduro MTB circuit, along the trails of the Casentinesi Forests Park
The Senators Enduro Cup – Premilcuore Stage brings the major enduro MTB circuit of Emilia-Romagna to one of the most fascinating villages on the Apennine ridge, in the Municipality of Premilcuore, in the province of Forlì-Cesena. Nestled at the gates of the Casentinesi Forests National Park, Monte Falterona and Campigna, this town offers ideal terrain for enduro: technical single tracks winding through beech and fir woods, significant elevation changes, and panoramic views stretching over the most striking peaks of Tuscan Romagna.
The Senators Enduro Cup is the leading enduro MTB championship in Emilia-Romagna. Created to revive the regional enduro movement in collaboration with FCI-affiliated clubs, it offers a travelling calendar that visits the most iconic locations in the Emilia-Romagna Apennines, from April to September. Each stage awards points for the overall standings and contributes to the awarding of the Emilia-Romagna FCI Regional Champion title, with dedicated classifications for both traditional mountain bikes and e-bikes.
Enduro is a discipline that rewards downhill riding: the race is divided into timed special stages (SS), mainly downhill and on technical terrain, connected by untimed transfers that are ridden on the saddle, often uphill. The winner is the one who achieves the lowest total time across the special stages. The Premilcuore course, designed by the ASD Due Ruote Forlì Ride For Fun team, covers about 30 km with a loop that brings riders back to the village, alternating scenic stretches and technical trails in the typical environment of the Casentinesi Forests.
The stage is not just about competition. The eve of the race, in Piazza Caduti, is enlivened by an evening dedicated to athletes and enthusiasts, while the Premilcuore Festival Area becomes the event's headquarters, with registration, start, and finish. It's an opportunity to discover this corner of the Forlì Apennines, its traditions, and its hospitality, in a day that combines sport, nature, and the local community.
The stage was part of the 2026 Senators Enduro Cup circuit (six stages from April to September, in iconic locations of Emilia-Romagna) and was valid for awarding the title of Emilia-Romagna FCI Regional Champion, with classifications for both MTBs and e-bikes. The youth circuit Senators Kids was also present.
