The transfer from location stage 7 is planned for 10:00 on Saturday. Parking and pick-up are by the Conca d’Oro Pool in Vidiciatico. Please park in the lower parking lot.
Please have your bikes assembled – not in the bike bag – and be ready to board at the above time.
Transfer – Airport (pre-booked service)
Transfer from Bologna Marconi Airport (BLQ) is planned for 13:00 on Saturday, September 3rd.
We have a small group of riders coming on Friday and we are arranging a transfer at 20:00. Reply to this email if you are interested.
If you have not sent your flight schedule with the flight number please write to info@appenninica-mtb.com. We must have this information (it is not enough that you have booked the transfer).
The meeting point is at the arrival terminal (ground floor). Exit from the sliding doors and gather to your right. You’ll see a staff member with an Appenninica sign.
If you arrive by train you can reach the airport via the monorail called Marconi Express.
