Gianni Moscon is certainly one of the Italian riders to keep an eye on Sunday. The race might me too hard for such a rider, and someone doubts about him due to the long stop after the Tour de France. Truth is every national team will be watching him closely because he showed good condition during the recent Italian races and because he is so strong that leaving him five meters could mean seeing him again at the finish line.

What’s your opinion? who’s going to win? You probably have an opinion about the new world champion yourself. Leave your name in the comments below, predicting who you think will win on Sunday.     The 2018 UCI Road World Championships are taking place this week – from September 23 to 30 – in Innsbruck, Austria. This is Austria’s third time hosting the road cycling world championships. From the moment you fly or drive into Innsbruck, mountains dominate the view. Mighty and majestic, they will undoubtedly make for a magnificent backdrop this week when more than a thousand elite cyclists will compete for medals and rainbow stripes in Tyrol at the 2018 UCI Road World Championships.   LET’S GO RIDE We set out to ride one lap of the Olympic circuit that the riders will face seven times on Sunday, adding in the extremely steep and narrow Höttinger Höll, dubbed “Highway to Höll,” 11 kilometers from the finish.     ELITE MEN’S ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP COURSE The elite men’s road race looks set to be one of the toughest in history, with 4,670 meters of elevation gain over a distance of 258.5 kilometers.

The time has finally arrived. After three days of jersey design inspiration leaks, Castelli and Maratona dles Dolomite have released the two new designs for male and female cyclists challenging the 32nd edition of the Maratona dles Dolomites on July 1, 2018. The two designs unveiled tonight have been inspired by the landscape and nature of the Badia valley. To gather inspiration for the creative process, we asked six local athletes and mountain-loving friends to bring their favorite colors or objects found in nature in the Badia valley to the design table.   Fans and cyclists not participating at the Maratona will have the first opportunity to buy one of the brand-new kits on Castelli-cycling.com starting on Monday, July 2nd. Thanks to Ashley and Jered Gruber  for participating in this video, climbing the extraordinary, excruciating 138-kilometer long route with just short of 4,200 meters (13,780 feet) of climbing. What do you think about the new colors? chat about the two new kits in the comments below.       “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” – Albert Einstein.   Make sure you learn the Italian and Ladin pronunciation of “balance” in your preparation for the Maratona race ...

– FIND THE INSPIRATIONAL VIDEO’S BELOW – The 2018 edition of the Maratona dles Dolomites – Enel will kick off on July 1 in the Badia valley of Italy’s far north. More than 9,000 riders will climb out of the darkness, just before dawn breaks over the surrounding limestone peaks of the Dolomites. The race is a must for every serious cyclist. The landscape of the Dolomites is so important and so inspiring that it’s protected by UNESCO, and every year the Maratona has an environment-related theme. The race’s patron, Michil Costa, is what the Italians call a “personaggio,” a character. His goal is to get people to connect with nature, to contemplate their place in it, and to appreciate not only its fragile beauty but also what that beauty can do for our own fragilities. Riding here might be tough on the legs, but it does wonders for a stressed-out mind. Because Castelli’s head office is near the Badia valley, Castelli staff live, ride, run or ski in these mountains all year. Finding the right elements and inspiration for the Maratona jersey was the motivational state that brought the 2018 kit design from idea to reality.  “Getting the call ...
