What are the common cycling bets?
If youāre new to betting on cycling, you might not be sure about all the different bet types available. Here are some of the most common and popular cycling bets in the industry.
Race Winner: If youāve got a hunch about which cyclist will win a race, you can place a bet on them.
Top 3 Finish: If you think a cyclist has a good chance of finishing in the top 3, you can place a bet on them. As long as your selected cyclist finishes in third place or better, youāll win.
Top 10 Finish: Similar to the top 3 finish above, a top 10 finish expands things even further.
Stage Betting: Besides just betting on the overall winner of a cycling race, you can also wager on the winners for individual stages.
Futures Betting: With this bet type, you can bet on things like the winner of a race well before it happens. This type of bet is risky, but can be very profitable.
King of the Mountain: Many of the cycling races, including the Tour de France and Giro dā Italia, have mountain stages. For these races, a King of the Mountain award is given to the cyclist thatās the best overall climber of the competition.
Young Rider Betting: This type of bet offers you the ability to bet on young cyclists in different events. Typically, youāll be choosing which rider under the age of 25 you believe will earn the most significant number of points throughout a race.
