Cycling Betting Online
Although the Tour de France is the marquee event of cycling, it is far from the only show going. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in betting traffic for cycling events. While the Tour de France has the most brand recognition, gamblers are taking an increased interest in other major events as well.
The sport of cycling has three major annual events. The Giro d’Italia, Tour De France, and Vuelta a España are the three most important events in the sport. They are known as Grand Tours, and they are all three-week-long races broken down into daily stages. From a gambling perspective, the Grand Tour races are the only ones that draw any noticeable betting handle, and the Tour de France dwarfs the other two Grand Tour events as the Super Bowl of cycling. The Tour de France generates more gambling activity than all other cycling events combined.
