CENTOPASSI —THE MULTISTRADA CHALLENGE RETURNS FROM JULY 21- 25, 2004.
16 June 2004 - Ducati UK Ltd

A not-to-be-missed road riding adventure through the stunning and demanding mountain roads of Italy and France. Ducati Motor is the main sponsor of the event, organized by Dream Engine for the second consecutive year.

Following the success of the 2003 edition, Dream Engine and Ducati are excited to announce the second edition of CENTOPASSI –the extreme two wheeled adventure tailored for passionate motorcyclists who want to test their driving skills, push their endurance on some of the most demanding roads and mountain passes, and have a great time.

While last year’s route ran long and wide through the eastern alpine region of Italy, this summer’s itinerary runs along the opposite side—swerving over the western border of Italy, in and out of France. The itinerary sweeps through exquisite alpine locations along enjoyable roads.
The 5-day event will depart from Nizza (France) on the 21st of July, and the route will take participants through the towns of Sospe (FR), Limone Piemonte (IT), Barcelonette (FR), Cesana Torinese (Piedmont, IT), Albertville (FR), l’Alpe d’Huez (FR), and Morgex (Valle d’Aosta, IT), finishing in the Italian town of Saint Vincent (Valle d’Aosta, IT) on the 25th July.

The 2004 CENTOPASSI has been designed to challenge riders even more than the 2003 edition. Each leg has been carefully studied to render the route more captivating and entertaining than ever. As in 2003, the event is open to motorbikes of all brands and all years in the single or team competitive category (Competition class) or the non-competitive and purely fun touring category (Iron Biker).
Subscriptions are open until July 9th.

Again this year, the motorcyclist who proves to be the best overall rider in the Competition Class will be awarded a Ducati Multistrada during the prize giving ceremony held on the last night of the event.

Ducati, for the second consecutive year is the main sponsor of CENTOPASSI. The Multistrada Challenge celebrates the versatility of the company’s recently launched best selling bike, the Multistrada—a bike designed by the Bologna based motorbike manufacturer to confront every possible road condition, from tortuous mountain curves, to highspeed highways and traffic filled urban centers. Centopassi is also made possible by the support of Superga, Pirelli, APT Servizi (Tourist Promotion for Emiliga Romagna), and Grandi Navi Veloci.

Centopassi: a true extreme riding experience, an adventure through some of the most beautiful mountain roads in the world and a chance to discover your inner Ducatista.
