In 2025, the Granfondo Nove Colli once again confirms its commitment to solidarity with the return of #NoveColli4Children, the charitable initiative that blends sport and social impact.

Once again, an exceptional Dream Team will take to the saddle to support the Istituto Oncologico Romagnolo and, in particular, the pediatric patients of the Pediatric Oncohematology Department in Rimini.

The driving force behind this initiative is ASD Fausto Coppi, organizer of the Nove Colli, together with its technical partner Gobik, a key brand in the race.

Up for grabs is a €10,000 donation — but to win it, the four Dream Team members will have to complete the 130 km route in under 4 hours. A demanding challenge that will require determination, preparation, and true teamwork.

The 2025 Dream Team includes:
• Fabio Aru (former pro cyclist, winner of the 2015 Vuelta a España, a Tour de France stage, three Giro d’Italia stages, and twice on the final Giro podium)
• Christian Zorzi (former Italian cross-country skier, Olympic gold medalist in Turin 2006)
• Rocco Cattaneo (former pro cyclist and current member of the UCI Finance Committee)
• Chiara Ciuffini (Enervit ambassador and winner of the UCI Amateur World Championship and European Champion in Verona 2019)

Alongside them, 40 solidarity cyclists have chosen to join this charitable mission by registering with an increased fee, which will be donated to the cause. They are the beating heart of this solidarity ride: by cycling with the Dream Team, they will actively contribute to raising the final donation amount, turning effort and passion into a powerful act of generosity.

Join us Saturday at 6:30 PM at the Gobik stand for the official team presentation and jersey handover — a symbolic moment that will kick off one of the most meaningful and emotional challenges of the Nove Colli.
