Tour de France

Even if you are not a big fan of cycling, we are pretty sure that you have heard of this race before as it is known as the most prestigious and most challenging race. It is a race that all professional cyclists dream of winning at least once. The riders race over three-weeks across France, which is obviously where the race gets its name from. There has been 110 editions of this race, and Jonas Vingegaard is the most recent winner. Eddy Merckz, Jacques Anquetil, Miguel Indurain, and Bernard Hinault have all won the title five times.

Giro d’Italia

This is the world’s second biggest and most famous cycling race and like the Tour de France, it consists of 21 different stages and lasts for more than three weeks. As is clear from the name, this race takes place in Italy, but they do actually pass into some bordering countries as well. Primož Roglič won this race in 2023, while the likes of Fausto Coppi, Alfredo Binda, and Eddy Merckx have five wins apiece.

Vuelta a Espana

This is the third biggest cycling race, and it is usually raced in August and September. When compared to the two races above, this one is considered by many to be the easiest, but the word “easy” should be used lightly here since the riders still have to travel thousands of kilometres through Spain in order to get their hands on the title. Sepp Kuss won the 78th edition of this race in 2023, while Roberto Heras is the most successful cyclist with 4 wins to his name.

Olympic Games

The Olympic Games have gone on to become one of the most anticipated and prestigious sports events in world, taking place every four years. Those who love to watch and place bets on cycling events will find plenty of options at the 2023 Olympics in Paris. For us, the most interesting cycling event is track cycling, so we suggest that you check that out when this event rolls around. Britain regularly comes out on top in this discipline.

Betiton UK Cycling Betting Markets

When you are gambling at top cycling betting sites, like Betiton UK, you will come across a variety of markets that you can place bets on. However, there are some markets which are a lot more popular, and we shall take a look at these now.

Outright Winner

With this market, what you need to do is try to predict the cyclist that will go on to win the race. This market usually has the option of an each-way bet, which means that you can still make some money should your chosen cyclist finish inside the top three/four – the number will depend on the bookmaker.

King of the Mountain

The “King of the Mountain” is the award that is given to the cyclist who is the best climber throughout the race. The current leaders will be wearing a polka jersey, with the participants being award points based on the difficulty of the climb. The greater the challenge, the more points will be on offer.

Stage Winner

All of the big cycling races are made up of a series of stages, and different cyclists can win each particular stage. You will usually be given the chance to bet on the cyclist that you think will win a particular stage of a race. It does not matter if they go on to finish in last place overall, so long as they win the stage that you predicted them to win.

Best Young Rider

This is one of those markets that is unique to the sport of cycling. With this market, you have to select a cyclist under the age of 25 who you think will go on and perform the best. Once again, they do not need to win the race, so long as they finish as the best youngster.

Other Betiton UK Cycling Bet Types

Above you found out about the most popular markets that you can bet on at any top cycling betting site, but there are many other cycling bet types that you can put your money on, and some can be found below:

• Match-Ups – Your bookmaker will provide you with pairs of cyclists, and you will have the option of placing a bet on the rider that you think will finish in a higher position.
• Number of Stage Wins – This is an over/under betting market where you need to predict whether the total number of stage wins for a rider will be higher (over) or lower (under) than the number given to you by your bookmaker. The number will vary depending on how fancied the cyclist is.
• Top 10 Finish – Do you think a rider will perform well but you do not see them winning the whole race? If so, then you can bet on them to finish in the top ten.
• Number of Finishers – With this bet type, you have to predict the number of riders that will complete all race stages in an over/under market. The number that you will be given will depend on the size of the race. For instance, the Tour de France might have 160.5 as the number.

Cycling Betting Tips by Betiton UK

While betting on cycling online is not a tricky endeavour, it is still important that you do plenty of homework before betting if you want to have a good chance of landing some winning bets. There is nothing stopping you from placing a random bet and hoping for the best, but this betting cycling strategy is not one that we recommend. Below we have given you some cycling betting tips to keep in mind.

• Analyse the Race – There are many different bike races that take place throughout the year, and you need to find out as much information about each one as you can before you start placing your hard-earned money on it. You should check out the latest news and stats since this can provide you with very useful information that can increase your chances of winning.
• Learn about the Riders – Cycling races require a lot of endurance and determination, and the form and fitness of a cyclist will play a huge role in their success. So, it is important to find out the latest fitness and form of the cyclist that you want to bet on. We do not recommend betting on cyclists that have just come back from a long injury.
• Study the Teams – Team strength is really important since it impacts the help each rider gets as well as how much work each rider needs to put in. A team that has all-round riders will do well in team classification, but riders that want to win the individual classification will need a team of solid climbers to set the pace through the tougher stages.
