GFNY Pro Series

The GFNY Pro Series places UCI-sanctioned professional races directly alongside GFNY mass-participation events using the same courses and the same road closures.

Professional fields start minutes ahead of the GFNY mass peloton, creating a shared race environment while maintaining clear competitive separation. This format increases visibility for teams and sponsors and allows professional racing to operate within existing event infrastructure.

The model was first implemented at Gran Premio New York City, where professional teams race the GFNY World Championship course shortly before the amateur start. GP NYC serves as the template for future Pro Series events.

The GFNY Pro Series expands selectively. Additional UCI races are added only where local conditions, funding, and infrastructure support sustainable professional competition. Planned events include Gran Premio Cozumel, held in conjunction with GFNY Cozumel, pending UCI approval.

GFNY is also evaluating the addition of women’s professional racing within the Pro Series, beginning with a potential women’s race in New York City, developed in partnership with organizations supporting the growth of women’s pro cycling.

NEW YORK CITY, April 1, 2026 – Big Hit Racing (USA) and Cannondale Echelon p/b 4iiii (Canada) have confirmed their participation in the third edition of Gran Premio New York City on May 17, 2026. Both Club teams strengthen an already competitive field of elite and professional squads set to race in the UCI-sanctioned event, held alongside the 14th edition of the Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship New York City.

“As NYC’s fastest-growing elite racing team, racing GPNYC was an obvious desire” says Wes Tillman, Big Hit Racing Team Manager. “The team has deep roots in NYC cycling culture, having won GFNY several times. For us, this step up to GPNYC felt both like a natural progression and a chance to test our mettle at a world class event, against a UCI field on home roads in front of a home crowd. It’s an opportunity not a lot of teams get.”

Big Hit Racing Director Sportif Cesar Gallego adds: “We want to shape the outcome rather than follow it, and fight for a result in a way that puts us firmly at the front of the race”

Alain Cadorette, Team Owner of Cannondale Echelon p/b 4iiii, says: “Our team has made GPNYC a priority since its inauguration and we intend on making the final selection again aiming at another top 10 result.
