The Coppa Città di Asti was an annual one-day cycling race held in the Asti commune of Province of Asti, Italy.
The last edition of the race was held in 2007. The cessation of the race was not attributed to financial constraints, as historical sponsors continued their support. Luciano Cerrato, the organizer of the race cited the absence of his brother-in-law Piero Pia, who had an important role in the administrative aspects of the event.[2]
