Race schedule

Round 1 · Winter Tour

4 Aug 2026 – 25 Aug 2026

Week 1 – August 4 – Watopia: Itza Climb Finish
29 km, 291 m elevation
Start fast over the first 4 sprint sections, then the race heats up as you climb the Mayan and Itza mountainsides — the perfect place for climbers to make their winning move.
Week 2 – August 11 – New York: Brooklyn Bridge Finish
31 km, 241 m elevation
This one is made for sprinters! Mostly flat with 3 sprint opportunities, ending on the famous Brooklyn Bridge. Even though the profile looks easy, the undulating course can still split the bunch if you lose focus and drop the wheel. The finish will suit a strong rider with a good turn of speed.
Week 3 – August 18 – France: Hell of the North
19.8 km, 241 m elevation
A shorter but intense race: 4 sprints to satisfy the fast riders, then a tough uphill finish on the Petite KOM. The climb is draftable, so smart positioning and a well-timed attack can take the win.
Week 4 – August 25 – Scotland: The Muckle Yin
23.4km, 282m elevation
A true test for all-rounders. With 5 climbs to earn KOM points and one last chance to collect sprint points, the final night offers every rider one last chance to shine.
