STRADE BIANCHE 2021
The 15th edition of the iconic race in the heart of Tuscany is an event every cycling fan had been looking forward to since last year's edition in October.
Now back at its traditional place in the calendar, it was once again a gathering of cobble specialists who were keen on coming for a short trip to Italy or riders who will be lining-up for Tirreno Adriatico the following week.
This year's hunt over the white roads even animated a handful of GC riders to widen their gravel experience for this year's Giro d'Italia in May.

Most riders already consider this race the sixth Monument, owing to its high and prestigious standards.
It's an 184k long journey with 11 gravel sectors (64k in total) and several steep ramps before crossing the line at Piazza del Campo in Siena.

Mathieu van der Poel lived up to his role as big favorite and won this year's battle for the crown. Throughout the entire race, the Dutch champion showed that he’d be the man to beat this year.
When launching his final attack with 300m to go, he dropped his final companions and celebrated an impressive solo victory.
