The shorter route is 130 km while the longer one covers 205 km, and both arrive at the Carducci seaside promenade, where the Pasta Party will welcome all participants. 

Green is the keyword for 2019. The Nove Colli has always been attentive to environmental awareness and the good rules of cycling; so as of this new edition there will be even more checks in the race, with a “Green Team” ready to patrol the routes.
