Sports greetings to all our Rotarian cyclist friends.
It is with real pleasure that we invite you to the four non-competitive international Rotarian cycling days organized this year in Cesenatico, on the Adriatic coast.

Cesenatico is the home of amateur cycling. Here cycling is the most popular amateur sport. Cesenatico is also the home town of “magic” Pantani, the international cycling champion who became a legend.

Cesenatico also hosts major cycling events, staged every year and which have transformed this seaside resort into the ideal place for top-level sports gatherings. This year: 19 May – 4th Tour Munich - Cesenatico, 21 May, 13th stage of the Giro d’Italia, Porto Recanati - Cesenatico, 23 May, 40th "Nove Colli" event, an amateur cycling classic, in which twelve thousand cyclists from all over Europe take part.
Packed programme for accompanying persons: guided tours to discover the real Cesenatico, the Canal Harbour designed by Leonardo da Vinci, the Cervia salt pans and a countryside full of history and places of interest.

The hotels of Cesenatico are renowned throughout Europe for their traditions and high standards and are now even more complete with special services for cyclists. “Cycling to serve” traditionally dedicates its solidarity to the less fortunate and on this occasion as well we hope to be able to devolve any event proceeds in favour of “End polio now”.

In the hope of spending a pleasant stay together in a Rotarian spirit of friendship, in Cesenatico and the hospitable land of Romagna.
Mario Baraldi
