Genoa (Italy) 8-11 April 2010
Genoa, birthplace of Columbus! Almost holy ground for sailors and explorers. Moreover, a very nice city to arrive a couple of days prior to the race. Enjoy the beautiful medieval downtown, get lost in romantic alleys, shop at trendy boutiques, have a drink with tapas in one of the many cosy bars and explore the sparkling nightlife; you can do it all in Genoa!

Trapani (Sicily, Italy) 16-19 April 2010
Trapani is a beautiful spot whether you want to relax or stay active after the race. The nearby nature parks are great for a hike, you can swim in the bay or just relax and get a great tan at the beach. The centre is full of old churches and squares where there is a regular chance for an open air concert.
