Buongiorno
I translate easy for you my friend:
gran = large or beeg
fondo = suffering, torture, searing agony (in some regions also means "route")
So Smokin Joe isa neerly right with 'is "pain and misery"

According to BabelFish, "fondo" translates as "bottom" and "gran" as "great" - so "great bottom" is the official translation. I'm glad that's been cleared up then.
More helpfully, this site translates it as:
http://www.biciveneto.it/granfondo.html
"gran fondo means long distance or great endurance"
which is perhaps a little more helpful.0
