Ascent to the pleasant town of Loiano from the bottom of the Savena valley: good tarmac and challenging but regular gradients, with a slightly easier section at the Bibulano crossing, and the toughest gradients in the final stretch of the ascent.

Ascent to the pleasant town of Loiano from the bottom of the Savena valley: good tarmac and challenging but regular gradients, with a slightly easier section at the Bibulano crossing, and the toughest gradients in the final stretch of the ascent. Asphalt in good condition, generally limited traffic, although there may be motorbikes with a Bolognese riding style, i.e. bad.

Once in Loiano, you can continue towards Monghidoro and then the Raticosa: up to Monghidoro, the road is substantially flat once you leave Loiano.

Salita alla gradevole cittadina di Loiano dal fondovalle Savena: buon asfalto e pendenze impegnative ma regolari, con un tratto leggermente più facile in corrispondenza dell'attraversamento di Bibulano, e le pendenze più dure nel tratto finale dell'ascesa. Asfalto in buone condizioni, traffico generalmente limitato, anche se possono esserci moto con stile di guida bolognese, ovverosia pessimo.

Arrivati a Loiano, si può proseguire verso Monghidoro e poi la Raticosa: fino a Monghidoro la strada, una volta usciti da Loiano, è sostanzialmente pianeggiante.
