The UCI Gran Fondo World Series will grow significantly next season with 10 new events featured on the 2020 calendar.

With a 24km time trial on Friday and a 56/141km Granfondo on Sunday, the Italian qualifier event in Trento was again a big success this weekend with more than 2500 riders competing in one of the distances in splendid weather conditions.

The new Russian qualifier event, organized in the past 4 years but for the first time part of the UCI Gran Fondo World Series is the last chance for riders to qualify for the World Championships in Poznan later this season.

Organized for the first time in 2011, the 9th edition of Cache Granfondo will get a significant upgrade as the event will be part of the UCI Gran Fondo World Series.

The 14th edition of the Charly Gaul Granfondo in Trento is a real classic in the UCI Gran Fondo World Series with yearly events since 2012 and the world championships in 2013 and again in 2022.

Granfondo Ezaro scored another participants’ record with 1500 riders attending the 2019 edition on challenging Galician roads with three mayor climbs on the slightly updated 150km course. The 85km short course skips the south loop and one of the climbs.
