Targa Rignano (original) (raw)

The Padova–Bovolenta race (1900–1908) was an automobile, voiturette and motorcycle race. The first day had a 10-kilometre (6.2 mi) straight race speedrecord track between the cities of Padova and Bovolenta in Italy, followed by a 1-kilometre (0.62 mi) race in Padova the next day. The name Targa Rignano was only used in the years 1902, 1903 and 1904, as conte Rignano was involved. The race was not held 1905 to 1908, and after a fatal spectator accident involving Diatto-driver (1908), the Italian Parliament asked for it to end.
