Strade Bianche 2026 will take place on Saturday 7 March. Stay with us in beautiful Tuscany and enjoy the medieval city of Siena. The Strade Bianche weekend is a celebration of early season cycling on the white gravel roads around historic Siena that give the race its name. The southernmost northern classic has only been in existence since 2007, but it has already established itself as a ‘must see’ and a ‘must do’ event. Last year the Strade Bianche winner was Tadej Pogacar.

Enjoy Strade Bianche as a guest of one of the best pro cycling teams in the world. This is the most immersive experience that there is. Only available with Sportive Breaks, discover our exclusive programme of VIP packages for a unique cycling experience. Enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at Team Visma | Lease a Bike and our unparalleled hospitality during Strade Bianche.

If you haven’t booked the hotel with us then please meet us at the hotel in Siena on the day. We are staying at hotel Four Points Sheraton.

The day begins with our Team Visma | Lease a Bike host who will meet you to begin your race day experience. You host will be an ex-pro rider who will offer professional insights into the race. The first stop is a visit to the team hotel where one of the team Directors will share the team’s race strategy with you for the day.

After visiting the team hotel, we set off for the start area where you will visit the Team Bus to see how a World Tour Cycling Team prepare for a race day. From there you visit the start village for the team presentations and rider sign on. Now it’s time for the race to get underway.

You will be in an official Team Visma | Lease a Bike vehicle with full race accreditation for access to the race course.

During the day you will stop at multiple points on the roadside and we will stop for lunch along with having snacks and drinks available throughout the day.
