roads you could never
imagine existed

At the end of each stage the ranking of the day will be determined;the more precisely you follow the routes, the more points you will be awarded; at the end of the fourth stage, a final ranking will be made according to which the title of “Magnificent Curver” will be assigned to the absolute winner, whose name will be written on the Golden Album of the 20,000 Pieghe.
The twelfth edition of the 20000 Pieghe will start on Saturday May 29 2021, when the participants, once arrived at the port of Olbia, will be able to easilly reach the “Geovillage Sport Wellness & Convention Resort” where they will find a tasty breakfast before proceeding with accreditations starting at 8 am.

The second stage , about 348kms long, runs through the northern inland of Sardinia going from Badesi to Alghero and then continues towards one of the most beautiful and panoramic roads of Italy, “the SS 105”, coasting the sea and connecting Alghero to Bosa.
