If you don’t know where you are going, you can’t get lost. Problem solved.

But if you ride a bike to go somewhere, the way we like it, technology helps a lot, especially when we try to avoid the most popular tracks and the cars.

Andrea Borchi (Bikepacking.it and Tuscany Trail) will tell us and explain how to use at best these technologies.

The novelty of SPOT, a very useful tool used to ensure our safety in the wild and isolated environments and especially when we are alone, will be presented by another big name of the Italian outdoor Tony Gialdini.
