Next EDC will be in San Marino.

The date is 1-2 may and it'll be inside a bigger convention - San Marino Con.

This will be the third time for an EDC in San Marino.

Save the date.

@Claesar and @everybody who likes cycling: schedule a couple more days for your stay... San Marino is amazing, and you are at 40 kms from Nove Colli route! Try the 18% Barbotto climb :o

I hate the first part of Aple d'Huez (12%) so I will definitely not cycle up an 18% climb :lol:

Probably not, but you may have a mask with the flag of the country you're playing :razz:

So we do not need to have a COVID vaccine shot to get into San Marino? But if we are flying from another continent, I suppose we will have to fly into Italia, and they may have some difficult rules that may or may not allow foreigners in, or unvaccinated foreigners. I guess I will do the research.

@Johnny. We're speaking about Italy here...
Basicly the rules are so difficult, that nobody follows them. And you can say "Eh, mamma mia...", make the hand jesture, and it'll be everything ok. ))

I have just checked, but did find informations for italians going in the US or returning. I Think every country should give the right info for its citizens if they want to travel somewhere.

@Claesar, good to know. We're now having a good participation from Switzerland already, so feel free to bring 5-10 people with you.
