Strade Bianche, it\u2019s one of the best races on the calendar.<\/p>\n

\n

And it\u2019s coming to light up your life this Saturday with its mouthwatering cocktail of gravel roads, steep climbs, and picture-perfect finale.<\/p>\n

And like always, the startlists for this so-called \u201cmonument\u201d look as delicious as the parcours<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Not to bury the lede \u2013 Tadej Poga\u010dar is back.<\/p>\n

The Slovenian debuts his season at Strade Bianche on Saturday, and upstarts like Paul Seixas and Tom Pidcock will be trying to steal the double defending champion\u2019s crown in Siena.<\/p>\n

Or who knows, maybe Pogi\u2019s teammate Isaac del Toro will upset the hierarchy at team UAE?<\/p>\n

And speaking of returning Tour de France champions?<\/p>\n

Pauline Ferrand-Pr\u00e9vot will kickstart her 2026 in Tuscany on Saturday against a who\u2019s-who of hitters.<\/p>\n

Two-time Strade Bianche Donne winners Demi Vollering and Lotte Kopecky will be joined on the start line by road and CX world champions Magdeliene Vallieres and Lucinda Brand, and many, many more.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not hyped enough already, the men\u2019s and women\u2019s races could pack even more punch in 2026 than they did in recent years.<\/p>\n

Race organizers RCS have trimmed the overall distances of Saturday\u2019s races and reduced the density of sterrato<\/em>\u00a0to promote\u00a0more open, explosive racing.<\/p>\n
