About Trofeo Fornasiero
A race in the heart of Saccisica
The Trofeo Alfredo Fornasiero is the road cycling race of Piove di Sacco, in the province of Padua. Reserved for the Elite and Under 23 categories of the Italian Cycling Federation, it attracts Italian and other European athletes, and represents an anticipated event on the Veneto amateur calendar.
The Circuito dei Casoni
The route, named Circuito dei Casoni, winds for over 170 km starting from the hamlet of Corte. The course crosses the rural landscape of Saccisica and touches symbolic buildings of the area, such as the Casone Rosso, inhabited until the nineties, and the Casone of via Ramei (the 'Casone Bianco'), which houses the museum of popular culture and peasant civilization. A circuit that is 'not too tough, but capable of making a selection'.
A family dedication
The race is dedicated to the memory of Alfredo Fornasiero and his brothers Vito, Remo, and Renzo, united by their passion for cycling. Organized by ASD Alfredo Fornasiero with the municipal administration, the race promotes cycling in the area and enhances its agricultural vocation, linking sport to the landscape of the province of Padua.
