12 Must-Watch Cycling Races in 2023

From the classics to the grand tours, it’s going to be another thrilling year of bike racing.

Believe or not, we’re already over a month into the 2023 season, with racing already underway in Australia, South America, the Middle East, and Southern Europe.

But while we’re excited to see the sport’s best men and women back in action–and some of the sport’s biggest names have already started their seasons on a winning note–these races are merely the appetizer, whetting our palettes for bigger races still to come.

Here’s a rundown of the races we can’t wait to see in 2023.

Omloop Het Nieuwsblad — February 25

We’re purists, which means despite the fact that the racing season started in mid-January, we don’t consider the season to have really started until the running of the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, the first race of the season in Belgium. With events for both men and women, the “Omloop,” as it’s affectionately called, offers everything we love about the spring Classics: rain, wind, cobblestones, and many of the short, steep “bergs” that speckle the Flemish countryside.

On the men’s side, Belgian riders and teams often lead the way: Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) won last year’s race after an attack just before the Bosberg, the day’s final climb. He won’t be back to defend his title though, which leaves the door open for one of Soudal-Quick Step’s many stars to a big win on home turf for the Belgian super-team.

Strade Bianche — March 4

Taking place on the white gravel roads of Tuscany, Strade Bianche is easily one of the hardest and most beautiful races of the year. A race in which the strongest rider always wins, it makes sense that the event’s list of winners reads like a Who’s Who of the sport’s best racers.

For example, Slovenia’s Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) won last year’s race with a solo attack 50 kilometers from the finish line in Siena, an incredibly gutsy move that only a rider like Pogačar would attempt (and pull off). And before Pog, previous editions were won by the Netherlands’ Mathieu van der Poel (2021), van Aert (2020), and France’s Julian Alaphilippe (2019). Clearly, this is a race where only the best succeed.

On the women’s side, van Vleuten is again the top favorite: she won the race in 2019 and 2020 and finished second to Belgium’s Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx) last year. And keep an eye on Italy’s Elisa Longo Borghini (Trek-Segafredo), who won the race in 2017, and Poland’s Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM Racing), a four-time podium finisher who’s still searching for the top step.

How to Watch: GCN+

Milan-Sanremo — March 18

The first of cycling’s five Monuments, Milan-Sanremo (294km) is the longest one-day race on the calendar. And thanks to the fact that the outcome is almost always decided in the final 10K, the riders say it’s the easiest race to finish, but the hardest race to win.

We love Milan-Sanremo’s slow build to the finish as the riders head south from Milan toward the coast, then wind their way along the sea toward the climbs that make-up the Monument’s traditional finale—especially the Poggio, a short, punchy ascent just a few kilometers from the finish line whose treacherous descent often creates more gaps than the climb itself. Case in point: Slovenia’s Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious) used a dropper post to leave the rest behind on the descent, laying it all on the line to take the biggest win of his career.

And while there’s no women’s Milan-Sanremo, the Trofeo Alfredo Binda, a major stop on the women’s WorldTour and a pillar of the former women’s World Cup series, takes the place the next day—and can be streamed live via GCN. Italy’s Elisa Balsamo (Trek-Segafredo) won last year’s race, outsprinting her compatriots Sofia Bertizzolo (UAE Team ADQ) and Soraya Paladin (Canyon-SRAM) to take the victory.

Tour of Flanders — April 2

Many riders consider the Tour of Flanders (known locally as the “Ronde van Vlaanderen”) to be the hardest one-day race on the calendar. The men’s event features over 250km of the toughest terrain in the Flemish region of Belgium, with tight, technical roads, cobblestones, and short, steep climbs called “bergs.” The course is so challenging that it can take years for a rider to master the nuances of the race enough to actually contend to win it.

Last year’s men’s race went to van der Poel who shrugged-off a late-start to the season–and a stunning challenge from Pogačar–to win the Ronde for the second time in three years. Both riders are expected to return this year, alongside van Aert, who was enjoying the form of his life but was forced to skip the event after testing positive for COVID-19.

In the women’s event, look for another battle between the Dutch and the Italians with van Vleuten headlining a list of contenders that should include her compatriots, Chantal van den Broek-Blaak (SD-Worx) and Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma), both former winners of the event. For the Italians, Longo Borghini should lead the way. SD Worx got the better of van Vleuten last year, working over the Dutch superstar in the finale to set-up a victory for Kopecky, the Belgian champion.

Paris-Roubaix — April 8 and 9

The “Hell of the North.” The “Queen of the Classics.” Whatever you call it, Paris-Roubaix is probably our favorite race on the calendar. The final half of this 255km Monument includes about 55km of Northern France’s worst cobbled roads (spread over 29 “sectors”), so it’s packed with drama and always produces a worthy champion—even when it’s a dark horse. This year’s race returns its usual spot on the calendar (one week after the Tour of Flanders) after pushing back a week to accommodate last year’s French national election.

Saturday brings the third-ever women’s Paris-Roubaix (145km), which starts in Denain and follows the final 17 sectors of cobbles of Sunday’s men’s race—all the way to the finish line in the Roubaix velodrome. Both editions have been won solo: Great Britain’s Lizzy Deignan (Trek-Segafredo) won the inaugural event with a long-distance attack in wet, muddy conditions, and Long-Borghini won last year with a strong counter-attack in the final hour after the leading group reformed. Van Vleuten has never won this race, but is skipping the event to target the hillier Ardennes Classics two weeks later. In her place, the Dutch will have Vos to root for, and she would certainly love to add a Roubaix cobble to her palmares.

In last year’s men’s race, the Netherland’s Dylan van Baarle (INEOS-Grenadiers) won the first cobbled Monument in his team’s history after attacking the leading group about 20km from the finish line in Roubaix. And the Dutchman moved to Jumbo-Visma this past off-season, giving van Aert one of the strongest and most experienced teammates anyone could ask for.

La Vuelta Femenina — May 1 to 7

For the past 8 years, the organizers of the men’s Tour of Spain have run a women’s event during the men’s grand tour. Starting as a one-day race run alongside the last stage of the men’s grand tour, the event grew to include four days of racing, but that’s hardly a grand tour, isn’t it?

Enter the new and improved La Vuelta Feminina which in addition to being expanded to seven stages has moved to its own spot on the calendar–away from the men’s event that often overshadowed it. The course is yet to be unveiled, but we know the race will begin on the Costa Blanca, which means beautiful scenery and close proximity to lots of hard climbs.

Van Vleuten has already said she’s racing–she won the last two editions–and looks to make this the first victory of what she hopes will be a hatrick of women’s grand tour wins in 2023.

Giro d’Italia — May 6 to 28

While the Tour de France gets all the prestige, riders generally consider the Tour of Italy (the “Giro d’Italia”) to be much, much harder. This year’s race begins in the Abruzzo region and with the exception of a summit finish in Switzerland, stays entirely within Italy. The race finishes in Rome for only the fifth time in its history.

Always characterized by its mountains, the 2023 Giro offers seven mountain stages and six summit finishes, including a mountain time trial on the Giro’s penultimate day that finishes atop the Monte Lussari. As usual, the final week is a beast, with three more summit finishes before the final time trial.

This year’s race features three individual time trials, which is probably why Belgium’s Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick Step) has made the focal point of his season. The reigning world champion won last year’s Tour of Spain to take the first grand tour victory of his career, and as one of the sport’s best time trialists, likes what the course has to offer.

Start lists are far from finalized, but we expect Evenepoel to be challenged by Slovenia’s Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) a 3-time Vuelta winner who’s tried several times but failed to win the Giro, and Great Britain’s Geraint Thomas (INEOS Grenadiers), winner of the 2018 Tour de France. All of them should have the defending champion, Australia’s Jai Hindley (BORA-hansgrohe), to contend with as well.

Giro d’Italia Donne — June 30 to July 9

In the absence of a women’s Tour de France, the Giro Donne was traditionally the most prestigious women’s stage race on the calendar. But the success of last year’s Tour de France Femmes means the Giro Donne’s organizers will need to step-up their game in order to keep up with their French rivals. Case in point: it was recently announced that beginning in 2024, RCS–who organizes the men’s Giro d’Italia–will take over the Giro Donne, which means more money and more infrastructure will be funneled toward this important women’s event.

Details have yet to emerge about this year’s course (they always arrive at the last minute), and we’re curious to see which riders attempt to tackle the Giro Rosa and the new Tour de France Femmes two weeks later. Last year we said that winning both would be a tall order, but van Vleuten proved us wrong by winning the Giro and then Tour de France Femmes a few weeks later. She’s again tackling both races in 2023.

Tour de France — July 1 to July 23

The 2023 Tour de France should again be one of the highlights of the year–and this year’s edition has several tricks up its sleeve. The race begins in the Spanish Basque Country and quickly heads into the Pyrenees, where early mountain battles will begin shuffling the General Classification. Stage 9 brings a return to the Puy de Dôme, an extinct volcano that’s one of the most famous climbs in Tour de France history–and hasn’t been climbed in 35 years.

The final two weeks cover some of the toughest climbs in the Alps, including the high-altitude (and steep) Col de Loze and the race’s only time trial: a hilly ITT on Stage 16. As the race approaches Paris the riders will hit the Vosges mountains, for a tough penultimate stage featuring many of the climbs used by van Vleuten to seize control of last year’s Tour de France Femmes.

The defending champion, Denmark’s Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) will return to defend his title, and he’ll face a stiff challenge Pogačar, the winner in 2020 and 2021. The Slovenian seemed to learn a few lessons after relinquishing the yellow jersey midway through last year’s Tour, and that could mean bad news for Vingegaard and his team.

Tour de France Femmes — July 23 to 30

After facing years of pressure from advocates and racers, the organizers of the Tour de France finally announced the return of a true women’s Tour de France. Consisting of eight stages, the race began on the final day of the men’s Tour and finished one week later. It was a resounding success.

This year’s Tour de France Femmes will follow a similar pattern: starting in Clermont-Ferrand on the last Sunday of the men’s Tour, the race covers eight stages suiting a variety of riding styles.

The first six stages offer chances for sprinters and puncheurs, which means exciting racing for viewers and fans. But the final weekend has us most excited with a summit finish on the Col du Tourmalet on Saturday and an individual time trial on Sunday.

Van Vleuten overcame a slow start to dominate last year’s race. If things go according to plan she’ll defend last year’s title, and possibly complete a historic triple by winning the Vuelta, the Giro, and the Tour all in the same season.

UCI World Championships — August 6 to 13

The UCI World Road Race Championships move to early-August this year, which makes the Tour de France an even more important event as it’s the best place for riders to hone their form. And the events couldn’t be taking place in a more stunning location: Glasgow, Scotland. Raced by national teams and run entirely without race radios, these are always some of the most intriguing and intense races of the season.

The hilly city circuit should favor the riders we’re used to seeing at the front of the World Championship road races: the Dutch (led by van Vleuten, the defending champion) and the Italians on the women’s side (both teams are too deep to single-out any one rider), and puncheurs like Evenepoel (the defending champion) and France’s Julian Alaphilippe (winner in 2020 and 2021) on the men’s. Each winner will spend the rest of the season and the first half of the next in the rainbow jersey awarded to the winner of each discipline.

Vuelta a España — August 26 to September 17

As the final grand tour of the season, the Tour of Spain (“Vuelta a España”) is traditionally a last chance for riders hoping to end the year on high note, earn a contract for the following season, or get themselves in shape for the fall Classics. With lots of mountains and a start list filled with motivated riders, the Vuelta always delivers some of the year’s most exciting finishes.

At this point in the season it’s tough to predict who will add the Spanish grand tour to their program, as lots of things can change between now and September. Evenepoel (the defending champion) and Roglič (winner in 2019, 2020, and 2021) will have more than enough time to target the Vuelta after competing in the Giro, but a lot can happen over the course of a season.

We also can’t wait to see what kind of hot mess Movistar brings to the race: as documented by the Netflix series “The Least Expected Day” the Spanish squad always finds a way to both animate and implode. Our hope is that they let their American up-and-comer, Matteo Jorgenson, try and challenge for a high GC finish.

Since getting hooked on pro cycling while watching Lance Armstrong win the 1993 U.S. Pro Championship in Philadelphia, longtime Bicycling contributor Whit Yost has raced on Belgian cobbles, helped build a European pro team, and piloted that team from Malaysia to Mont Ventoux as an assistant director sportif. These days, he lives with his wife and son in Pennsylvania, spending his days serving as an assistant middle school principal and his nights playing Dungeons & Dragons.

2023 Pro Cycling Calendar

The 2023 race calendar breaks with tradition by moving the World Championships to early August, between the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España. This will also be the year in which an extensive calendar of races outside Europe returns, and several races will be born that will make the season more interesting. In this article, we will analyse all the changes and enable you to download the race calendar to follow the frenetic activity of the season more easily.

The Calendar

In the image, you can see the complete men’s calendar for the 2023 season, which will hopefully end on October 17 with the Tour of Guangxi, cancelled the last 3 years. We recommend downloading it in high resolution through the links below. We also provide links to download each quarter separately. The images can be printed to paste on the wall of your bedroom, for example, should you wish to absorb the glorious calendar even in the midst of sleep.

• Complete calendar

In January, we have the return of the Australian races, the Vuelta a San Juan and La Tropicale Amissa Bongo, early season classics that have not been contested since 2020. In addition, the Clàssica Comunitat Valenciana is upgraded to category 1.1 (the lowest category that allows the participation of WorldTeams) and will inaugurate the season in Europe. The Grand Prix Criquielion (March 4) and the Elfstedenrace Friesland (March 5) are also promoted to category 1.1.

In the new races section, there are three new classics that will take advantage of synergies in the calendar: the Muscat Classic (February 10, one day before the start of the Tour of Oman), the Figueira Champions Classic (February 12, three days before the start of the Volta ao Algarve) and the Giro della Città Metropolitana di Reggio Calabria (April 9, two days before the start of the Giro di Sicilia). Also the Tour du Doubs (usually in September), will be brought forward to April 16 to form a triptych of one-day races in France. Thanks to their placement in the calendar, these four races will be able to attract a good participation of teams looking to optimise their logistics.

On the other hand, the Tour of Türkiye (WorldTour until 2019 and ProSeries until 2022) has been downgraded to the 2.1 category, taking away the attraction of the UCI points it was handing out. Surely, its startlist will be greatly affected by this.

In the second part of the season there are no new races, but the Tour de Hongrie (May 10-14) and the Mont Ventoux Challenge (June 13) are upgraded to the ProSeries category, being able to host more WorldTeams and distributing more UCI points. Another ProSeries race, the Tour of Norway (May 26-29), will be reduced to only 4 stages compared to 6 in the previous edition. In addition, the Circuit Franco-Belge (1.Pro), usually at the end of the season, will be moved to June 28 to avoid overlapping with other races.

Anyway, the main change is the World Championships in August. This will only be the case every four years (in the Olympic year), when the “Super World Championships” will be organised, bringing road cycling together with the rest of cycling disciplines. These road World Championships will be especially strange, as the men’s elite road race will be held before the time trials and the women’s and U23 events. The Tour de France seems the best option to prepare for the men’s elite road race, as there are not many alternative races to get into the rhythm of competition.

The change of dates for the World Championships has caused La Vuelta to be delayed by a week and the European Championships to take the place of the World Championships. We are likely to see a colder than normal Vuelta a España, as the race will take place in northern Spain in September. In addition, the one-week delay means that the final week of La Vuelta will overlap with a multitude of Italian and Belgian classics, which will reduce their media impact and the quality of their startlist. In this context of race saturation, the Benelux Tour, which was already cancelled in 2022, is reduced to only five stages in 2023. We will see if the race will continue to maintain WorldTour status in the future with so many organisational problems.

But there is also good news at the end of the season. The Clàssica Andorra Pirineus (September 23) and the Tour of Kyushu (October 6 to 9 in Japan) are born. The Tour of Kyushu may attract several teams that will participate the following week in the Japan Cup. In addition, the Trofeo Baracchi (October 1), organized from 1941 to 1991 and won by Eddy Merckx, Fausto Coppi or Jacques Anquetil, returns. This one-day race has the format of a time trial in couples, differentiating it from the other events on the cycling calendar. Also in Italy, the Giro del Veneto (October 11) and the Veneto Classic (October 15) are promoted to the ProSeries category. Both races are organised by former cyclist Filippo Pozzato.

For its part, Le Tour de Langkawi (2.Pro) will be maintained at the end of the season after last year’s success and will be linked with the Tour of Peninsular 2.1 (also in Malaysia, its only edition was in 2019). Thus, they will offer 13 days of competition combining the two races, an attraction for modest teams suffering to participate in a large calendar.

This calendar is provisional and may still be subject to cancellations or variations of dates during the season. The return of the Chinese races will depend on the pandemic situation. We wish you a happy season!

Record Store Day 2024: An It List guide to the most anticipated day on the vinyl lover's calendar

Vinyl lovers, rejoice.

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

April 20 is Record Store Day , a day when vinyl lovers descend on thousands of independently owned brick-and-mortar record stores to browse hundreds of new and exclusive releases by artists big and small.

The annual event, which began in 2008 as a way to celebrate the people who work at and frequent indie record stores, has been embraced by musicians and bands of all sizes and genres. (Here’s a searchable list of participating record stores .)

“Indie record shops are some of the only spaces we’ve got that offer a tangible, tactile experience of music discovery,” Paramore, who are serving as Record Store Day ambassadors, said in a group statement upon being chosen as this year’s honorees. “In this world that feels more disconnected and hostile than ever, it feels important to remain in touch (literally) with what inspires us, empowers us, or simply brings us joy.”

Here is a quick guide to just some of what’s in store for Record Store Day 2024, followed by the full list of releases.

The Beatles, The Beatles Have Arrived! (4 x 3” vinyl and mini turntable)

In honor of the 60th anniversary of the Beatles’ historic Ed Sullivan appearances, the Fab Four is releasing a mini-turntable and 3" records for four of the songs they played on the show: "I Want to Hold Your Hand," "Till There Was You," "Saw Her Standing There" and "She Loves You." The 3" singles will also be available separately.

Buena Vista Social Club, Buena Vista Social Club (2 x LP)

With the help of Ry Cooder, the ensemble of Cuban musicians recorded their 1996 eponymous album that became a massive, unlikely Grammy-winning hit, selling 8 million copies worldwide. The classic album, on limited edition gold vinyl, is being released as part of the 25th anniversary of Wim Wenders’s 1999 documentary about the group.

Fetty Wap, Fetty Wap (2 x LP)

The “Trap Queen” rapper’s self-titled debut record has been out of print since its original release in 2016. This version, on opaque violet vinyl, will include additional bonus tracks new to the format.

G.B.I., The Regulator (7” vinyl)

Dave Grohl joined Anthrax’s Charlie Benante and Scott Ian (collectively dubbed G.B.I.) to cover Bad Brains’s “The Regulator” from their self-titled 1982 debut album. All proceeds from the sale of their RSD exclusive 7” will go toward health care for Bad Brains frontman H.R., who suffers from an excruciating type of rare headache known as SUNCT.

Noah Kahan, I Was/I Am (LP)

The critically acclaimed Vermont singer-songwriter has exploded in popularity since his 2021 sophomore album, which is being released on limited-edition blue vinyl for Record Store Day.

Paramore,   Re: This Is Why (2 x LP) and Burning Down the House (12" vinyl EP with David Byrne)

The honorary ambassadors of Record Store Day 2024 are releasing two new records on Saturday: a set of remixes of their 2023 album This Is Why and a 12” single with Paramore's cover of the Talking Heads’ "Burning Down the House" on one side and David Byrne’s take on Paramore’s "Hard Times" on the other.

The Rolling Stones, Live at Racket, NYC (LP)

Ahead of their upcoming world tour, the Stones are dropping a special white vinyl edition of Live at Racket, NYC , featuring seven tracks the band performed at their intimate record release party for Hackney Diamonds in New York City last October.

Mavis Staples, Have a Little Faith (2 x LP)

The gospel and soul singer, who has been embraced by a new generation of fans, is re-releasing her landmark 2004 album on silver vinyl in honor of its 20th anniversary.

Neil Young With Crazy Horse, F***in’ Up (2 x LP)

The rocker and his band recorded this new album of old songs and one cover in 2023 for release on Record Store Day 2024. “Made this for the Horse lovers,” Young writes in the liner notes. “The horse is runnin’. What a ride we have. I don’t want to mess with the vibe. I am so happy to have this to share.”

Chris Wilder 'can't accept' players who 'wanted to get out there' after Sheffield United's heavy defeat to Burnley

Published 21/04/2024 at 09:24 GMT

Chris Wilder has called out some of his Sheffield United players, saying that a few "wanted to get out" of their 4-1 defeat to relegation rivals Burnley at Bramall Lane. Wilder questioned the mentality of his side after Johann Berg Gudmundsson had netted the Clarets' fourth goal just a minute after coming off the bench. The result leaves the Blades 10 points from safety.

2023 UCI WorldTour: the peloton takes on a full season of thrilling action

Excitement returns in australia.

After two years’ absence due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Santos Tour Down Under (January 17-23) will once again kick off the season. The event comes just a few months after Australia welcomed the 2022 UCI Road World Championships to Wollongong.

Rouleurs, sprinters, punchers and climbers will find varied opportunities to bring battle in the year’s first stage race, which will start from Adelaide with a 5.5km prologue. Five stages will follow along the Gulf of Saint-Vincent with three finishes favouring sprinters and two for puncher-climbers. Mount Lofty (683m) will be the new decider for this 23rd edition, with its 2.6km averaging at 7.3%.

The formidable Mount Lofty will make its first appearance on the final day of racing 🔥 Riders will leave from Unley & travel up the old freeway, with the end of race neutral set to come at the notorious Devil’s Elbow. Explore the Schwalbe Stage 5 here ➡️ https://t.co/XanzkHESo3 pic.twitter.com/vQZzS3nUfW — Santos Tour Down Under 🚴🚴‍♀️ (@tourdownunder) December 14, 2022

The peloton will then remain Down Under with the return of the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race (January 29).

Classics and stage races: a thrilling European spring

Slovenia’s Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates), winner of the 2022 UCI WorldTour individual ranking, is awaited in the United Arab Emirates to defend his crown on the UAE Tour (February 20-26). In the desert, he will face the Belgian prodigy and 2022 UCI World Champion Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step). The general classification specialists will then take to Europe for Paris-Nice (March 5-12), Jonas Vingegaard's first big test of the season, while his Jumbo-Visma partner Wout van Aert will refine his preparation towards the classics on the Italian roads of Tirreno-Adriatico (March 6-12).

The great classics campaign will open with the traditional Omloop Het Nieuwsblad Elite (February 25), followed by the unmissable Strade Bianche (March 4) and then the season’s first Monument: Milano-Sanremo (March 18). Big guns are already dreaming of shining on the Classic Brugge-De Panne (March 22) and the E3 Saxo-Bank Classic (March 24), quickly followed by Gent-Wevelgem in Flanders Fields (March 26) and Dwaars door Vlaanderen – A Travers la Flandre (March 29).

Following these highlights of the spring season, it will already be time to tackle the second and third Monuments of the year: the Ronde van Vlaanderen - Tour des Flandres (April 2) and Paris-Roubaix (April 9).

Once the cobblestones have been crossed, hilly courses will dominate the demanding road towards the end of this classics campaign. In the Netherlands, the Amstel Gold Race (April 16) marks the transition towards the Ardennes before the punchiest riders make the most of the Mur de Huy at La Flèche Wallonne (April 19), just before the year’s fourth Monument, Liège-Bastogne-Liège (April 23). Eschborn-Frankfurt will close this intense one-day racing campaign on May 1.

Grand Tour flavours

After Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico, the main players in stage races will go to Spain to take on the Catalan Pyrenees in the Volta Ciclista a Catalunya (March 20-26). As always, the rough climbs of Itzulia Basque Country (April 3-8) will generate a great show. The peloton will then rise even higher, in the Swiss Alps, during the Tour de Romandie (April 25-30).

It will be the start of a delightful period for fans of the three-week races. The 106th Giro d'Italia will start on May 6 from the Abruzzo region, in Fossacesia, and will end on the 28th in Rome. The winner of the 2022 edition, Bora-Hansgrohe’s Jai Hindley, will try to defend his crown against the likes of Evenepoel and Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma), 3rd in his last participation, 2019.

Sunny days in European latitudes herald the Tour de France, preceded by the Critérium du Dauphiné (June 4-11). The French event will be followed by the Tour de Suisse (June 11-18), before the season’s second Grand Tour (July 1-23).

The Tour de France Grand Départ will be in Bilbao with three spectacular stages already offering plenty of elevation, before moving to the Pyrenees on day five. The Tour will then return to the Puy de Dôme volcano, which has not been climbed for 35 years. The Alps will also offer a superb playground for a rematch between Jonas Vingegaard, Tadej Pogačar and the many contenders who will try to stand in the way of the last two winners of the Grande Boucle.

As they also eye the UCI World Championships in Glasgow and across Scotland (Great Britain, August 3-13), the stars of the peloton will have little respite before hitting the Spanish roads of the Vuelta Ciclista a España, the last Grand Tour of the season, which this year will start in Barcelona and end in Madrid (August 26 - September 14).

A spectacular end to the season

Other major races will punctuate the end of the 2023 UCI WorldTour calendar. After the excitement of the Tour de France, the Basque Country will host another major day of battle with the Donostia San Sebastián Klasikoa (July 29). The Tour of Poland will take place at the same time (July 29 - August 4).

The European summer also marks the return of one-day races with the BEMER Cyclassics, promised to sprinters (August 20), and the Bretagne Classic - Ouest-France (September 3), ahead of the Grand Prix Cycliste of Québec (September 8) and Montreal (September 10) on the other side of the Atlantic. Experts of the northern classics will also be able to shine on the tricky roads of the Benelux Tour (August 23-27).

Climbers will once again have pride of place on the occasion of the last Monument of 2023, Il Lombardia (October 7), before the final fireworks are to be launched in China at the Gree-Tour of Guangxi (October 12-17).
