The Giro dello Scorpione is not a race, but a fun event where fans of Castelli kit can meet other aficionados and enjoy some quality time on the bike together. As well as cycling in a lovely, hilly area with spectacular sea views, you will be able to visit several beautiful places of interest and of course, you can always enjoy some of that excellent Sicilian cuisine!

As so many cyclists like to bring their, often non-cycling, partner along to the event, on-Sicily have chosen a beautiful location with swimming pool as their event base camp, called the Borgo delle Olive, a characteristic Sicilian building with several luxury apartments.
