“la BELLEZZA” is not a competition, it is a game, it is an adventure to discover the hidden corners of Central Italy, it is exciting, tiring, unpredictable. You know your starting point, you know where you are headed, but you don't know where you will pass, you just know that they will be busy days and that, based on the choices you make, you will travel between 1500 and 2000 km of both secondary roads and dirt roads. And it won't be easy
You will have a list of award locations that once you reach them, they will give you a certain score, you will not be obligated to reach them all, which ones you reach depends on you, based on the strategy you want to adopt and the efforts you are willing to make. If you start with the intention of winning "la BELLEZZA" you will simply have to score more points than the others, so you will have to reach more locations or choose the ones that give the highest score. There is no need to be the first at the finish line, and you will not be able to get all the points possible because the locations will be on completely different routes.
