Italy Coast to Coast Cycling Tour with Sportive Breaks
Is there a better long weekend of riding than this? Embark on an unforgettable adventure from the Adriatic Sea to the Tyrrhenian Sea. Starting in Cattolica, you’ll roll through the rolling hills of Emilia-Romagna and into the heart of Tuscany. Pass through Sansepolcro, a Renaissance gem nestled in the Apennines, before gliding into the medieval splendor of Siena, with its iconic piazza and rich history. The journey concludes in Pisa, where the Leaning Tower greets you at the finish line.
Our Italy Coast to Coast Tour is a 4-night break riding from the sandy beaches of Emilia Romagna to the Tuscan Coast across Italy’s stunning mainland. This group is led by our expert guides and support vehicle as we ride together on the flats and at our own pace on the climbs. Afternoons are spent relaxing with a couple of beers and your pick of the exquisite local cuisine.
We move around each night on our Italy Coast to Coast, so expect no two days to be the same on this beautiful journey across this historic landscape.

Itinerary
Arrival day – fly into Bologna, transfer to the hotel and warm up ride.
We offer an airport transfer for your group from Bologna Airport, based on your groups arrival time. We suggest aiming to arrive before lunch so you can get riding today.
Our mechanic will help assemble your bikes ready for your afternoon ride. If you rented a bike it will be ready for you upon arrival, the mechanic can help adjust the setup to suit you. We will go for a short spin (1-2 hours maximum) to get the legs going and make sure our bikes are prepared for the riding ahead. Your guide will brief you on the riding ahead and what to expect from your trip across Italy.
~96km distance & ~1,770m elevation
We roll out at 09:30am and head inland towards Sansepolcro. The route takes you across the rolling hills and then into the Appennine mountains. Taking on the Bocca Trabaria which tops out at 1049m above sea level, before finishing on a descent into Sansepolcro.
Today you will start in the region of Emilia – Romagna. Then ride through the regions of Marche and Umbria before finishing in Tuscany.

~115km distance & ~1,650m elevation
After breakfast we roll out at 09:30am heading for Siena. Today we will take in some stereotypical Tuscan scenery as we go through the rolling terrain. As we approach Siena you may start to recognise some scenery from Strade Bianche as we will be approaching the finish line, the famous Piazza del Campo. You even have the opportunity to take on one or two white road sections as we approach. After finishing in the historical and instantly recognisable square we will head to the hotel.
~133km distance & ~1150m elevation
Today we finish off with a bang. After breakfast we head for the coast. Firstly we visit the walled, medieval town of San Giminiano to take in the beautiful and historic architecture. We head to the coast of Marina di Pisa to complete your coast to coast, but that’s not all! After pictures at the sea, we then ride back into Pisa to finish at the Leaning Tower of Pisa. A historical end to a trip you wont forget!
We will pack up bikes the night before so you can have a lazy breakfast and still get home to enjoy most of your day.
We offer an airport transfer for your group from Pisa Airport, based on your groups flight time.
