The CRO Race opens on the Dalmatian coast, but Stage 1 does not stay there for long. From Split, the route turns inland through Stobreč and the country east of the city, crosses the old territory of Poljica, reaches the…
The 2026 Men Elite World Championship begins far from the circuit that will eventually decide it. Before Mount Royal, before the repeated climbs and before the familiar Montréal skyline closes around the race, the peloton spends more than one hundred…
The 2026 UCI Road World Championships open in Montréal with a race against the clock, but the course is more than a technical test of pacing and aerodynamics. Over 39.2 kilometres, it traces the relationship between the city and the…
Twenty-five years after professional cycling last contested the Giro di Campania, the race returns with a route designed to cross the region rather than simply borrow one of its famous landscapes. Over 193.1 kilometres, it passes through all five provinces…
