Every Sunday in March @ 9am GMT

Escape turin, then the real challenge begins!

THE CHALLENGE

The italian affair route

Can you escape Turin and make it to the rendezvous point at the top of Colle del Nivolet in the Graian Alps?

Inspired by the 1969 movie, ‘The Italian Job’, this 102km exodus sees riders take on a virtual rendering of the escape route Charlie Croker and the team would have taken before finding themselves dangling off the edge of a cliff, trying to decide between gold or gravity. 

Sounds fun right? That is until you realise 2000 of the 2,671m of elevation comes in one monster 40km climb!
