The Giro d’Italia Women 2026 will not be decided by the sprinters, but they should shape the opening rhythm of the race. With flat stages to Ravenna, Caorle and Brescello, plus a handful of more awkward days where a reduced sprint is still possible, the fast finishers have enough opportunities to make the maglia ciclamino […]

The race formerly known as Gent-Wevelgem returns in 2026 under its new title, In Flanders Fields Women, but the core identity remains unmistakable.

Leeuw-Oetingen sits in that category. The Pajottenland roads are not Flanders and the Zavelberg is not the Muur, but by the time the […]
