Riders bulletin n.5
June 16, 2025
This is the fifth rider bulletin. These bulletins will provide useful information, news, and mandatory action reminders. Race time is next week!
Let’s talk about navigation
You’ll navigate via our yellow and red arrows and sometimes yellow signage tape, and also by using the GPX files of the stages uploaded to your GPS device. Get into the habit of checking your GPS device regularly to ensure you are on track. Read the race rules articles: Race marking and Navigation, Special Marking, Missing signs, and sabotage of racecourse arrows.
- GPX files of the stages are available for download. Save them to your GPS, including the routes that could be used in case of bad weather (BW in the file name). We’ll tell you more at the briefings. Please, make sure that they are uploaded and that your GPS device launches them correctly.
- Your friends and family can follow you thanks to SeTeTrack GPS tracking devices, (each of you will have one) and event page. The Appenninica live tracking event is at this link. From there, select the correct stage (not active, yet).
Remember to subscribe to the Appenninica MTB Telegram channel for updates during the race, links to the stage results, and links to sharable content. Turn on the push notification function.
