Trofeo Alfredo Binda Women 2026 takes place on Sunday 15 March, with the race covering 152.7 km from Luino to Cittiglio. The scheduled race start is 12:09 CET, which is 11:09 GMT in the UK.
For most viewers, though, the more important number is the live broadcast window rather than the flag drop. In the UK, the listed television coverage begins at 2:45pm GMT, which means broadcasters are expected to focus on the decisive later phase rather than showing the race from kilometre zero.
For race context before the television pictures begin, ProCyclingUK’s 2026 Trofeo Alfredo Binda race preview is the best place to start, while the site’s UK-specific viewing guide covers the British side in more detail.

Why Trofeo Alfredo Binda is worth watching
Binda is one of the most useful races of the early women’s spring because it teaches a lesson many one-day races hide.
On paper, it can look like a reduced sprint race. In practice, it is a race built on repeated pressure, punchy climbs and a circuit that steadily strips comfort away. That makes it one of the better early-season tests for riders who need more than just speed.
If you want the wider race context, ProCyclingUK’s 2026 Trofeo Alfredo Binda race preview explains why it remains such an important race, while the best women’s cycling races in 2026 for new fans guide places it in the bigger spring picture.
