The dust may have just settled on what was one of the most exciting years in professional cycling, and if 2026 is even half as exciting, cycling fans are going to be in for another blockbuster year.

The UCI WorldTour season kicks off soon with the Santos Tour Down Under, which starts on January 20th in Australia. The Tour Down Under is seen as the traditional current raiser and the official start of another WorldTour year, and I’m already organising my 2026 cycling season viewing.

Having a subscription to a top-rated service such as NordVPN means geo-blocking is not an issue, so you can access your regular cycling streaming services wherever you are in the world. That means being able to watch all the biggest races with notable events like Strade Bianche in March, Paris-Roubaix in April, and of course the Grand Tours themselves, including the Tour de France in July

The UCI World Championships return to Montréal, Québec, in September, and Tadej Pogačar will be going for his third victory in a row. It means the 2026 season is going to be a must-watch, and a trustworthy VPN is almost essential for all your cycling streaming viewing. It also means you can work online with total confidence, download content, and access all your usual services without worry – just as you would at home.
