The 2023 edition of the Beking charity criterium can boast an all-star list of starters including notable names such as Mark Cavendish, Tadej Pogacar, Primoz Roglic and Peter Sagan.
A charity event helping to raise funds for sustainable mobility in Monaco, created by Matteo Trentin and his wife, Claudia Morandini the Beking criterium will be more of a fundraiser than a serious bike race, with the riders currently enjoying their off-season only expected to take the on-bike action semi-seriously.
"Beking Monaco is only in its third edition and has already experienced exponential growth. I am proud to be part of this social platform to promote sustainable mobility, inspire and give back to the community a sense of livability in our cities," says Cavendish of the race. "As sportsmen and women, we are lucky to be able to do what we love. So to be able to inspire children and young people by giving them the opportunity to spend a day cycling is a great privilege for me. As a parent, I try to show my children the many ways they can enjoy sport, especially cycling, whether it is for fitness, mobility, enjoyment or competition."
Other notable names set to be involved include the likes of Michael Matthews, Urska Zigart, Elia Viviani, Elena Cecchini, Davide Formolo, Alessandro Covi, Samuele Battistella, Fausto Masnada, Niccolò Bonifazio, Matteo Moschetti, Matej Mohoric and Magnus Sheffield.

- Might be bit isn't. The reason is actually that no one wants to work for free. But that's my point. Incur the costs for a year, make clear that ads are coming and see if it works. No one else has tried this in cycling.Renz15-11-2024
- Plus MVDP now having basically done 4 seasons in 2 years might warrant a slightly longer rest than usual, although even then his will STILL be shorter than 98% of all other pro cyclists in any field.Mistermaumau15-11-2024

- Someone should do this: create a cycling news site that is free with no ads. Watch the subscriptions like up. Then carefully and slowly introduce ads. I might do it myself. Sites like CUTD are poorly conceived and consequently a mess. Readers will leave as soon as there is a better alternative.Renz15-11-2024
