Gran Fondo Strade Bianche

5th March 2023

BOOK NOW

Gran Fondo Strade Bianche

The 2023 Strade Bianche weekend is a celebration of early season cycling on the white gravel roads around historic Siena. 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

Guaranteed Entry with choice of start pen

Choose your Gran Fondo entry from £90. Upgrade to front pen at a supplement. The front pen entries are not available to the public but you can buy them with us as we are an official tour operator of the 2023 Strade Bianche.

4 star hotel in Siena

We are staying at the Hotel Executive in Siena with breakfast and dinner included. In 2022 Team Movistar also stayed here. We can't guarantee this for 2023 but what we can guarantee is that you can keep your bike in your room and that the hotel is near the start and finish of the Gran Fondo and the Pro race. 

You are in safe hands

Packages are financially protected by ABTA and our experienced team in Italy are led by Giro stage winner Andrea . Our basic hotel packages have lots included but you can choose to add additional services if required: airport transfers, Gran Fondo entry, bike rental and hospitality tickets.

2023 Strade Bianche Weekend 4th&5th March

Friday 3rd March - Arrival day

Please meet us at our hotel in Siena today where our team will meet you. If you plan to fly then we offer airport transfers for you, your luggage and your bike from Pisa and Florence airport in line with flights from the UK and Ireland. The journey to Siena takes about 1hr30 - 2 hours. Our mechanic is available this afternoon to fit rental bikes and to assist you with building your own bike after travel. Bikes can be stored in your room. Evening meal at hotel

Saturday 4th March - Strade Bianche day

It's possible to arrive today but we don't offer airport transfers. After breakfast and preparing the bikes, Andrea will take you on a supported ride that takes in the route of the Strade Bianche. En-route we will watch the riders of the pro peloton as they take on the white roads. We’ll be back at the hotel in the afternoon after watching the finish for you to rest and get prepared for tomorrow. Hospitality at the start and/ or at the finish or a day on the course in an official race car are available to book today at an additional cost starting from £70. Dinner at the hotel.

Sunday 5th March - Gran Fondo day

You were able to see how the riders of the Men’s and Women’s cycling elite handled the white roads yesterday. Today it’s your turn. Ride either the 139 km route with 31 kilometres of gravel roads or 86 kilometres with 21 kilometres of gravel. The race largely shares the course with the Women Élite event. The route is twisty and undulating, with no lengthy climbs, but with punchy hills, especially on the unpaved parts. Private feed stop on the course and we'll assist with packing bikes after the race. Dinner at the hotel.

Monday 6th March - Departure day

After breakfast we offer our optional transfer back to Florence and Pisa airport. We will depart Siena at 08.00. Our airport transfer arrives in Florence at 09.00 in line with flights that depart after 11.00. We will arrive at Pisa for 10.30, in line with flights that depart after 12.30.
