2019: The year in pictures

As 2019 is coming to a close, we’re looking back at some of the great Castelli moments and achievements of the past year. Celebrating 10-years of the legendary Gabba Jersey with the global cycling publications. Our passion is never-ending, like the Giro d’Italia and its “Infinito” trophy. As the provider of the iconic pink and other race leader jerseys, we keep looking toward the future. Our relentless drive to innovate brings revolutionary advances in terms of performance, design, and environmental impact. Egan Bernal takes Tour de France victory with Geraint Thomas alongside to secure an emphatic 1-2 finish and the team’s seventh overall success. Second-year in a row as the partner of Il Lombardia and GF Il Lombardia, the ‘Race of the Falling Leaves’. The fifth and final Monument of the WorldTour calendar and Italian sportive calendar. A unique route with the iconic climbs of the Ghisallo and the Muro di Sormano. Amity Rockwell taking her first solo win at the famously grueling 2019 Dirty Kanza 200-mile race. Ganna Filippo stunned the cycling world with his four kilometre individual pursuit ride in Minsk with a finishing time of 4:02.647. Our fifth participation as a proud partner of the Maratona dles ...

The Maratona Dles Dolomites Movie

There are many types of events that you can participate in with a road bike. There are granfondos, sportives, 24-hour team races, randonnées and many other formulas. The only limit is the organizers’ imagination. Then there’s the Maratona dles Dolomites, which, to call it a granfondo is, at the very least, reductive. Like describing Chris Froome as an ordinary bike messenger. (By the way, Chris, recover quickly! We’re eager to see you out on the bike again.) The Maratona dles Dolomites is a granfondo just because it somehow had to be placed somewhere. Due to the distance and the fact that there’s a ranking, it’s been put in that category. But there’s much more to it, and the competitive element is probably the least important of all the aspects to be experienced during this event. The atmosphere, the incredible scenery, the roads closed to traffic from the first to the last participant, and the hospitality of Alta Badia are the actors, with the mountains and the climbs playing the leading roles in an Oscar-deserving script that every cyclist should take part at least once in their life. A film like the Maratona has a perfect plot, with a mixture of ...

The wait is over (sort of): Maratona release the 2018 edition race kit!

The time has finally arrived. After three days of jersey design inspiration leaks, Castelli and Maratona dles Dolomite have released the two new designs for male and female cyclists challenging the 32nd edition of the Maratona dles Dolomites on July 1, 2018. The two designs unveiled tonight have been inspired by the landscape and nature of the Badia valley. To gather inspiration for the creative process, we asked six local athletes and mountain-loving friends to bring their favorite colors or objects found in nature in the Badia valley to the design table.   Fans and cyclists not participating at the Maratona will have the first opportunity to buy one of the brand-new kits on Castelli-cycling.com starting on Monday, July 2nd. Thanks to Ashley and Jered Gruber  for participating in this video, climbing the extraordinary, excruciating 138-kilometer long route with just short of 4,200 meters (13,780 feet) of climbing. What do you think about the new colors? chat about the two new kits in the comments below.       “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” – Albert Einstein.   Make sure you learn the Italian and Ladin pronunciation of “balance” in your preparation for the Maratona race ...

VIDEO: 2018 Maratona Dles Dolomites Jersey Unveil

– FIND THE INSPIRATIONAL VIDEO’S BELOW – The 2018 edition of the Maratona dles Dolomites – Enel will kick off on July 1 in the Badia valley of Italy’s far north. More than 9,000 riders will climb out of the darkness, just before dawn breaks over the surrounding limestone peaks of the Dolomites. The race is a must for every serious cyclist. The landscape of the Dolomites is so important and so inspiring that it’s protected by UNESCO, and every year the Maratona has an environment-related theme. The race’s patron, Michil Costa, is what the Italians call a “personaggio,” a character. His goal is to get people to connect with nature, to contemplate their place in it, and to appreciate not only its fragile beauty but also what that beauty can do for our own fragilities. Riding here might be tough on the legs, but it does wonders for a stressed-out mind. Because Castelli’s head office is near the Badia valley, Castelli staff live, ride, run or ski in these mountains all year. Finding the right elements and inspiration for the Maratona jersey was the motivational state that brought the 2018 kit design from idea to reality.  “Getting the call ...
