Our history

The Moto Club Castellazzo Bormida was founded in 1933 by the will of a group of local motorcyclist enthusiasts. In almost a century of activity, the Club has gone through wars, economic booms and crises, always keeping the flame of brotherhood and passion for two wheels alive.

The early years (1933-1945)

Founded in an era in which the motorcycle was still a luxury for the few, the Club immediately distinguished itself for the organization of regularity races on the dirt roads of Monferrato: Il Quadrifoglio, Il Giro dell'oca...

The post-war period and growth (1946-1970)

With the economic boom, the number of members grew exponentially. They were years of large gatherings and sporting successes at a national and international level.

The first meeting: On 8 September 1946, with the approval of the Italian Motorcycle Federation (FMI), the 1st Motorcycle Conference of the Madonnina dei Centauri was held.

On 11 February 1947, Pope Pius XII with the Papal Bull proclaimed the Primary patroness of motorcyclists, the Blessed Virgin of Crete and the Graces, the Madonnina of Castellazzo. Thus was born the Madonnina dei Centauri.

The years of maturity (1970-2000)

The Moto Club Castellazzo was definitively structured, acquiring its current headquarters and consolidating the tradition of the International Gathering which still attracts motorcyclists from all over the world today.
