Cycling events and traffic disruptions in Italy
Overview
Cycling events in Italy have recently involved both youth competitions and professional races, accompanied by local logistical challenges.
The Italia Bike Cup season concluded in Lugagnano with the Valdarda Bike event, a series of 10 races for youth gravel cycling talents. In the junior men’s category, Paolo Costa secured victory, while Angelica Gatto won the junior women’s category. This event followed the ‘Sud Bike Time Trial’ in Agropoli, which faced local controversy due to sudden road closures that caused heavy traffic congestion and protests from residents and tourists.
Following these events, the Gran Premio del Lazio professional race returned to Italy after an 18-year hiatus. The UCI 1.1 category race, part of the Europe Tour, covered 182.4 kilometers from Fiuggi to Anguillara Sabazia. On September 19, 2026, French cyclist Dorian Godon of Netcompany-Ineos won the inaugural edition of the event in a sprint finish, marking his 22nd professional win. He was followed by Luca Colnaghi in second place and Andrea Vendrame in third.
To ensure the safety of the professional competition, local authorities in Tivoli implemented traffic restrictions and road closures, specifically on the Via Nazionale Tiburtina.
