The route

STAGE 1, LIDO DI CAMAIORE – LIDO DI CAMAIORE (TUDOR ITT) 11.5 KM

The route of the ITT is composed of two virtually straight sectors, taking a ‘round trip’ along the same lane, with a ‘U turn’ halfway. The course runs straight for 5.0 kms all the way to the U turn in Marina di Pietrasanta, where split time is taken. The route then runs for a further 5.3 kms up to Lido di Camaiore, where an S bend leads into the final kilometre.

Final kilometres

The last 3 kilometres are flat and straight, heading south. With 1,200 metres to the finish, a right/left S bend on narrowed roadway, leading to the 1 km long home straight, marks the only complication. The finish line lies on a 6.5 m wide tarmac road.
