The story

a lovely easy bike route, from Chivasso to Gassino. a nice ride along the Po between river and rice fields, many sightings of herons and other specimens, always with the Basilica of Superga watching over us, and then at Gassino you head towards the road to Cinzano; the more daring can reach it, others can stop at the Defillippi restaurant, excellent cuisine and fair price (30 euros). On the way back you can detour to the Piana San Raffele and rejoin the dirt road... all in all a good bike ride to do as you please, however you feel like it. happy travels to everyone ventoenuvole
