Organizer GFNY on a mission to make American cycling great again

LA to NYC: America’s three week pro cycling stage race announced for spring 2026

GFNY, the organizer of the Gran Premio New York City professional cycling race, proudly announces the Tour of the USA, a three-week stage race for professional cyclists to be held from April 25 to May 16, 2026. The race will begin with a prologue in Los Angeles and conclude in New York City during the 14th edition of GFNY New York City.

The United States deserves a three-week stage race that spans coast to coast,” said GFNY CEO Uli Fluhme. “This race will highlight the diverse beauty of our nation and its people like never before. With the Soccer World Cup and the LA Olympics on the horizon, the Tour of the USA provides a timely platform to showcase world-class cycling in one of the world’s most dynamic countries.

Course details will be unveiled in the coming weeks. GFNY is committed to minimizing transfers between stages to ensure a true transcontinental experience. A record-breaking prize purse and extensive media coverage will attract the world’s elite cyclists to the start line.

Of course, there will be a Women’s Tour of the USA,” said GFNY President Lidia Fluhme. “It’s not an afterthought—it’s integral to our vision. The women will race the same course, on the same days, and with equal prominence. Their race will start ahead of the men’s field each day, ensuring a clear, uninterrupted competition and maximum visibility for the athletes. This is about raising the bar for professional cycling in the U.S., for both men and women.”

GFNY is actively engaged in discussions with local governments, key stakeholders, and potential sponsors to bring all the necessary elements together. These collaborative efforts are focused on securing the logistical, financial, and institutional support required to deliver a world-class event that benefits both the host communities and the sport at large.

Uli Fluhme added. “While I’m not at liberty to share specifics on the finances just yet, I can confidently say: we are going to make American cycling great again.
