What is a Gran Fondo?
A Gran Fondo is a type of ride that originated in Italy and translates to Big Ride. The rides are known as “parties on wheels,” with food and refreshments along the routes, followed by huge post race parties. With Niagara Wine Trail sponsored refreshment stops, pre and post-ride parties, and beautiful routes for riders of all ages and abilities, the Hospice Gran Fondo is a Gran Fondo like no other. Note: This ride is not a timed event.
