Motor Marathons - Re-defining motorcycle sport-touring
Centopassi Motomarathon - June 24 to 28th. This ride, named after the famous Centopassi annual endurance ride in Italy, will cover some of the most significant sport-touring roads in Colorado, paying special attention to the highest mountain passes, scenic canyons and remote high plateaus. While "Centopassi" means “100 passes" in Italian, we won't actually ride 100 passes, though it might feel like it while averaging 400 miles/day for four days.
