The creators of Eroica have decided to go new school, and on the 30th of April Nova Eroica is here.

This means modern bikes on the Strada Bianche, just like the world tour event.

Now whilst some will be up in arms about this, the meaning of the original event was to put in a heroic effort on an ancient bike, I’m all for it. Anything that promotes great cycling adventures is fine with me!

Also in this modern event there are some competitive elements. There are certain times sections along the route that will be added together to give you a final ranking, I think that’s pretty neat.
