MEDICAL CERTIFICATE
For Italian residents, participation is subject to regular possession of a medical certificate of fitness for competitive cycling as per ex DM 18/02/1982 (certificates for other sports such as triathlon, duathlon, football, athletics, etc., are not valid), valid for the entire period of the event (July 11-13, 2025).
For Foreign Participants (International Athletes):
For participants residing outside of Italy: a certificate of fitness to participate in competitive cycling events issued by a medical practitioner in their country of residence is required. We encourage using the "Health Certificate for cardiovascular intensive sport activity" form, attachment no. 3 to the current FCI Implementing Rules, which can be downloaded below. This certificate serves as a confirmation from a qualified medical professional that you are fit to engage in competitive cycling, ensuring the safety of all participants.
In other words, for foreign athletes, Italian regulations allow participation in the event by presenting a simple certificate signed by a general practitioner, confirming fitness for high-intensity cardiovascular sports. Unlike Italian competitors, there is no need to undergo extensive medical examinations or specific tests. This significantly simplifies the process, avoiding bureaucratic complications that could arise in many countries due to the lack of equivalent structures to those in Italy.
Alternatively, a sports card or any official document that, in your country of residence, allows participation in a cycling sports event requiring high cardiovascular effort (competitive) is also accepted, such as a Ufolep cycling sports card.
On the contrary, if it is possible to undergo a sports medical examination, similar to the Italian regulations, you may provide a medical certificate issued in your country of residence that meets the following requirements:
- The certificate must be issued by a licensed medical specialist in sports medicine, cardiology, or internal medicine.
- The certificate must explicitly state that you are fit to participate in competitive cycling events (or similar wording that clearly indicates your suitability for high-intensity cycling).
- The certificate must be valid for the entire duration of the event.
- The certificate must include the following information, at a minimum:
- Full name and date of birth
- Address and nationality
- Date of the medical examination
- Physician's signature and official stamp (including address and phone number)
The medical certificate must be valid for the entire duration of the event (July 11-13, 2025).
Disclaimer of Liability and Risk Awareness
The organizers decline all responsibility for adverse health-related events of participants resulting from failure to submit the required medical certificate or from submitting an unsuitable or untruthful certificate. Athletes registered for the event will be covered by sports event insurance (mandatory in Italy). The fee includes third-party liability insurance and accident insurance for participants. The organizers are not responsible for theft or loss of participants' personal belongings, unless such events are directly attributable to their negligence. By registering for the event, participants declare they are aware of the risks associated with sports activity, including high cardiovascular exertion, and accept such risks. They also declare they are in good health, as attested by the submitted medical certificate.
Registrations without payment will be considered invalid. We reserve the right not to accept some registrations if deemed necessary, in compliance with organizational needs. The deadline for registrations is July 4, 2025.
The registration fee is €80 for adults and €40 for juniors (from 14 to 18 years old). The fee is all-inclusive: mandatory insurance for the entire event, race pack, medical assistance, and all ancillary services. No additional fees of any kind will be requested. For the Tandem category, a single fee must be paid, but both competitors will be registered. Unless changes are communicated, the age for the Junior category is 14-18 years.
