My brother and I did the same thing “Strade Brute” (Brutal Roads/Ugly Roads) event last Saturday. Even if we did the Meno Bruto (less brutal) course, my brother managed to crash the rear derailleur and end up in single speed 😅
Franciacorta is famous for the Spumante wine, but the loop started from the local brewery Birrificio Curtense.
The course itself was very nice and perfectly paced with a nice mix of fast gravel in the vineyards, brutal single tracks and asphalt. There was only a very difficult stretch with impossible mud (sadly not filmed) and a lot of portage. 70 km and 1000 m of positive ascent.
I also did a “shortened” video with only the fast parts
