Outing Highlights
Strade Bianche — Tuscany’s White Roads
Experience the signature gravel: the white, compacted dirt roads that thread the hills around Pisa. These stretches form the backbone of the route and offer the quiet, unpaved riding the trip is built around.
Hidden Trails and Less‑Traveled Paths
The itinerary emphasizes off‑the‑beaten‑path trails and less‑traveled tracks, giving riders a sense of discovery as they move away from the main roads and into quieter corners of the countryside.
Gravel‑Ready Bikes and Included Tools
Rides use ALU 6061 gravel bikes spec’d with Sram 1×11 drivetrains and disc brakes (frame weight ~11.0 kg ±5% in M). The price includes a lock, repair kit, mini pump and multi‑tool; several accessories are available for a fee.
