A week prior to Red Hook Criterium London No.3, the third Coppa Agostoni was organised by Enrico Biganzoli. The crit is one of the most known criteriums in Italy and takes place in Lissone, Monza and Brianza province in the northern part. It’s organized by #ScattoFissoCrew, and made possible with support of Cinelli. The Coppa Agostoni is also the fourth stage of Criterium Italia Championship. With some tight corners and long straights the course was both technical and fast.
