November Porc Hot Feet - Roccabianca (PR)

November is the month of the pig... and I mean the animal ... in fact, long time ago in rural communities killing the pig was the main event of this season; anyway, this afternoon's race was dedicated to the celebration of the pig.

The race started at 3pm on a beautiful sunny day, in the middle of a fair (centered around the pig, of course) in front of the fortress of Roccabianca (literally meaning White Fortress); the course went around the northeast wing of the castle, and continued through narrow streets and sharp turns towards to the Po River. After a couple of miles along the bends of the river we went back towards the starting point, entering in the courtyard of the fortress and finishing with a beautiful parade between two wings of cheering public !


The course is very nice, the logistics outstanding (great parking plan, baggage dropping areas, fast bib pick-up procedures) and the marshaling on the roads highly efficient. 

Great job, very well done!
