Cycling Betting Lines

For the most part, cycling betting revolves around the Tour de France. It is the most popular race to wager on and the one that gets the most attention around the world. But that is not the only race you can bet on at BetPhoenix. Let’s take a look at the main races you can bet on each year.

Tour de France

The Tour de France gets underway each year in July. The main option for betting on cycling is which rider will win the race, but you may also see props on who will win the individual stages. You may also see options on which rider will be wearing the Yellow Jersey each day.

Two other races also get some action in cycling betting at BetPhoenix and they are the Giro d'Italia and the Tour of Spain. Along with the Tour de France, these three races make up the Grand Tour in cycling. This sport also has a type of  "Triple Crown" with the Tour de France, the Giro d'Italia and the World Cycling Championship.

Giro d'Italia

The Giro d'Italia is held each May and concludes in the month of June. It is a major prep race for the Tour de France. Gamblers who wager on cycling can sometimes get a good idea of who to bet on by following the Giro d’Italia.

Tour of Spain

The Tour of Spain or as it is sometimes called, the Vuelta a España is held each September. It is a major race that many sportsbooks will put on the board.

World Cycling Championship

The World Cycling Championship, also known as the UFC Road World Championships also gets some action in cycling betting. This event has a road race and an individual time trial.

When it comes to betting on cycling, the Grand Tour events get the most action but other events like the World Cycling Championship may be on the board at the sportsbook.

Placing a cycling bet at BetPhoenix sportsbook is simple and easy to do. It is similar in many aspects to wagering on a team in a futures bet. You might have a rider listed at odds of 3-1 to win an event and you can wager $100 and win $300 or an equivalent amount if your rider wins the race.
