The Route

After departing from Magenta the riders cross the Padana plain on flat, wide, straight roads with a long route through the Abbiategrasso, Vigevano and Lomellina territories up to Monferrato. Here the race profile begins to change with the gentle ups and downs of the Casale Monferrato area before returning to the wide, straight roads that lead to the final circuit.
