Cycling the Cuneo Valleys: Monviso, the Agnello, and the Southern Piedmont Roads
The four Occitan valleys south of Cuneo — Varaita, Maira, Grana, and Stura — offer some of the emptiest and highest road cycling in the Italian Alps, anchored by the Col dell'Agnello, the Colle delle Finestre, and the medieval town of Saluzzo where the Giro Donne concludes today.
Fifty Seconds: The 2026 Giro Donne Comes Down to Saluzzo
Van der Breggen leads Vollering by 50 seconds entering the final stage of the 2026 Giro d'Italia Women — a loop through the Cuneo hills that ends in Saluzzo this afternoon. The gap is large enough to manage. The Montoso is hard enough to close it.
Vollering Takes the Stage, Van der Breggen Takes Everything Else: Stage 5 in the Cadore
Demi Vollering won the sprint of four that ended Stage 5 in Santo Stefano di Cadore, but Anna van der Breggen followed every attack and left the Dolomites still in pink — a minute clear, two stages from Sestriere.
Into the Po Plain: Stage 6 Brings a Sprinters' Reckoning to Brescello
The Giro Donne drops from the Dolomites to the Po plain today — 159 kilometres from Ala in the Adige valley to Brescello on the river, nearly flat, sprint finish expected. Van der Breggen sits in; Balsamo, already a two-stage winner this week, hunts a third.
Into the Cadore: Van der Breggen Defends Pink on Stage 5's Triple Dolomite Test
Anna van der Breggen carries a 1:04 lead over Marlen Reusser into today's 146-kilometre Dolomite road stage from Longarone to Santo Stefano di Cadore — the Giro Donne's first day of full alpine climbing, with the Tre Croci, Sant'Antonio, and a double Costalissoio circuit stacked into the final 90 kilometres.
