Marcialonga Cycling Craft 2026: Orlando and Bussone Dominate Predazzo Showpiece

Predazzo once again became the centre of the Granfondo world as 1,500 riders from fifteen nations rolled into the Val di Fiemme and Val di Fassa for the 18th Marcialonga Cycling Craft. Participants faced a choice between the brutal 135 km Granfondo (3,900 m of climbing) and the equally testing 80 km Mediofondo (2,488 m).

Franziska Tanner finished 11:32 behind, with Elisa Leardini securing third at +19:49.
