The Tour of Utah stage race will visit communities along the Wasatch Front from Ogden to Payson, tackle the mountain elevations around Snowbird Resort, Canyons Village at Park City Mountain, and Woodward Park City, and ride a stage from dōTERRA headquarters in Pleasant Grove to Provo. Now recognized as the only multi-day race in North America on the UCI ProSeries, the Tour of Utah strengthens this exclusive division of international racing by ensuring an optimal fit with the UCI WorldTour schedule. The Tour of Utah has been designated among the best HC (hors category) and Class 1 road races around the globe. “Our designation as a UCI ProSeries race by the international cycling federation is new, but the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah remains a crowd favorite and one of the most successful races in North America,” said John Kimball, managing director of the Tour of Utah. “We are fortunate to have welcoming host venues that roll out the red carpet, picturesque courses that show beauty and brawn, and a very supportive cycling community that enjoys watching great athletes. We look forward to bringing the Tour of Utah to the state and the world in August.” Here is the lineup of Tour of Utah host venues for the seven race stages: 2020 Larry H.

Details regarding each stage route, such as race mileage, courses, elevation gain, and start/finish times as well as KUTV2 Lifestyle Expo and local spectator festivities, will be announced in the late spring. The Tour of Utah changes its geographical configuration each year to introduce the sport of cycling to new communities across the state, as well as present diverse courses for the professional athletes. For the first time, Herriman City in southwest Salt Lake County will be a Tour of Utah host for the Team Presentation on Saturday, Aug. 1, as well as the overall start for the weeklong competition. Stage 1 presented by Zions Bank will begin on Monday, Aug. 3 at the Zions Bank Real Academy, the home training facility of Major League Soccer’s Real Salt Lake and United Soccer League Championship title holder Real Monarchs. The Tour makes its inaugural appearance at the corporate headquarters of dōTERRA for the start of Stage 2 presented by dōTERRA on Tuesday, Aug. 4. The finish line will be in Provo, which previously hosted a Tour stage in 2011. Stage 3 presented by Monster Hydro takes place with the start/finish in Payson on Wednesday, Aug. 5 and imposing Mount Nebo, the highest mountain in the Wasatch Range, as a backdrop. The mountains will be featured in Stage 4 on Thursday, Aug. 6 between two ski resorts, both owned by adventure lifestyle company POWDR. First-time host Woodward Park City, a new action sports and ski resort with indoor and outdoor facilities, will serve as the start. Snowbird Resort, which has hosted more times than any other place at 13, will mark the finish line after a grueling six-mile climb in Little Cottonwood Canyon. A circuit race will be held for the first time in downtown Ogden for Stage 5 presented by America First Credit Union on Friday, Aug. 7. This is the eighth time Ogden has been designated as an official host city, previously serving as a stage finish in 2015. Racing will conclude with two days in Park City. Canyons Village at Park City Mountain, a four- season resort, returns for the start and finish of Stage 6 presented by University of Utah Health on Saturday, Aug. 8. The start/finish for the grand finale returns to Park City on Sunday, Aug. 9 with Stage 7 presented by the Utah Sports Commission. It is the 11th year Park City has served as a host city, and the eighth time it has hosted the overall finish of the Tour of Utah. Now in its 16th year, the week-long Tour of Utah has earned the reputation as “America’s Toughest Stage Race.” The 2019 event crowned Belgian Ben Hermans of the Israel Cycling Academy as its champion, and EF Education First captured the team title after covering 477 miles of racing and 37,882 feet of elevation gain. The Tour of Utah has begun extending invitations to UCI WorldTeams, UCI Pro Continental and UCI Continental squads and will announce a field of 16 men’s teams in early spring. Past General Classification champions have included Sepp Kuss (2018), Rob Britton (2017), Lachlan Morton (2016) and Joe Dombrowski (2015) along with stage winners such as Tejay van Garderen, Cadel Evans, Chris Horner, Travis McCabe, Brent Bookwalter, Marco Canola, Giulio Ciccone, Rob Carpenter and Levi Leipheimer through the years.

In 2019, the race attracted 400,000 spectators during race week, featured 21 hours of national television coverage and reached more than 400 million homes via broadcast around the world. -- tourofutah.com – About the Larry H.

    Tour of Utah Elevated to UCI ProSeries Event for 2020 “America’s Toughest Stage Race” to be held on Aug. 3-9 SALT LAKE CITY (October 10, 2019) – The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) announced today that the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah has been selected to join the new men’s professional road cycling UCI ProSeries. The international cycling federation also revealed that the race in Utah will take place from Aug. 3-9, 2020. “The Tour of Utah has been recognized for its international racing stature with its inclusion in the UCI ProSeries,” said John Kimball, managing director. “We are thrilled for this designation by cycling’s governing body among its prestigious one-day races and stage races. Our placement on the calendar of events will better allow us to attract top-tier riders and WorldTour teams. We look forward to organizing a race of the highest standard.” The UCI has reorganized its men’s professional road racing structure into three separate divisions: UCI WorldTour, UCI ProSeries and UCI Continental Circuits. The new UCI ProSeries, which includes the best HC and Class 1 races such as the Tour of Utah, will strengthen the second division by ensuring an optimal fit with the UCI WorldTour schedule. “The Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah has proven over the years that it has earned the opportunity to be included in the new UCI ProSeries, which will feature many of the best races and historic events from around the world,” said Sean Petty, UCI Road Commission member. “The consistent quality of the race, the start-to-finish streaming of each stage and the incredibly challenging and picturesque courses that showcase Utah are second to none.” The Tour of Utah is the only UCI ProSeries stage race and one of only two events based in North America on the 54-race UCI road calendar.

  • How Well Do You Know the 2019 UCI Points Rankings?
    The Outer Line The External Perspective On Pro Cycling How Wellhttps://www.theouterline.com Do You Know the 2019 UCI Points Rankings? The men’s WorldTour bike racing season is almost over, and so it’s time to take a look at the formal grading system which most fans routinely ignore all the rest of the year: the UCI points ranking. But first, a quick pop quiz for all those who consider themselves to be avid followers or students of pro cycling (answers below): Can you name the only WorldTour team with two riders in the top-10 of the men’s UCI rider points ranking? No surprise that rising superstars Primož Rogli? and Julian Alaphilippe rank number 1 and 2. But, who do you think ranks third amongst the top riders – right in front of Tour de France phenom Egan Bernal, crafty veteran Alejandro Valverde (himself a multiple times winner of the points ranking) and veteran hard man Greg van Avermaet? Where do you think Team Ineos, the team with the largest budget, and a roster so stacked with talent that many thought they were threatening to “ruin” the sport, ranks in the final UCI team standings? And in the nations points ranking, what country do you think sits in 26th spot, just behind Eritrea, a small country in the horn of Africa with a population of under five million? If you score two or higher, consider yourself an insightful and expert pro cycling fan. OK, here are the answers. The German team Bora-Hansgrohe – not a team which got a lot of ink in the cycling media this year – had both Pascal Ackerman and Peter Sagan in the top-10, ranked 7th and 10th respectively.

    This is an Accepted Manuscript of a chapter published by Taylor & Francis Group in Fincoeur B, Gleaves J & Ohl F (eds.) Doping in Cycling: Interdisciplinary Perspectives. Ethics and Sport. Doping in Cycling: Interdisciplinary Perspectives: Routledge, pp. 177-188. https://www.routledge.com/Doping-in-Cycling-Interdisciplinary-Perspectives-1st- Edition/Fincoeur-Gleaves-Ohl/p/book/9781138477902 The Decline of Trust in British Sport since the London Olympics: Team Sky’s Fall from Grace Paul Dimeo and April Henning Abstract The success of Team Sky has been over-shadowed by a range of allegations and controversies, leaving significant doubts around their much-vaunted pro anti-doping stance. This chapter aims to contextualise these doubts within the wider frame of British sport, and more specifically the decline of trust. We trace the emergence of Team Sky from the National Lottery funded track team, arguing that the London Olympics was a pinnacle of medal-winning and public admiration. The turn towards professional road cycling was accompanied by new approaches to medicalisation. The Fancy Bears hack of WADA’s database, whistle-blower insights, Government inquiries, and media scrutiny have presented the public with sufficient evidence and critique to undermine the reputation of Team Sky’s management and riders. Other factors have contributed to the decline of trust, not least evidence of doping from the Russia investigations, the leaked IAAF blood files, the role of the IAAF senior managers, the conflict between WADA and the IOC over banning Russian athletes, and other related debates. We argue that the high-profile debate over the use of drugs in British professional cycling can be understood as symptomatic of a wider malaise affecting British sport, which in turn can be contextualised, explained, and seen as part of a broader shift in scepticism regarding political leaders and media organisations.

  • Message from the President
    Union Cycliste Internationale - UCI Newsletter #66 - 18.09.2019 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Members, This newsletter comes to you as we prepare for the 2019 UCI Road World Championships and the UCI Congress in Harrogate, Yorkshire. After witnessing an exciting year of road racing, I am very much looking forward to these Championships in Great Britain’s cycling heartland. I also look forward to seeing many of you at the UCI Congress on 27 September. I have travelled a great deal in the last 12 months and have also had the pleasure of hosting National Federation delegations at the UCI in Aigle, but it is only once a year that we are so many in the same place at the same time. This always leads to interesting and fruitful discussions and I treasure this opportunity. A few weeks ago, I travelled to Mont-Saint-Anne in Canada for the 2019 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships. This was a magnificent event in one of our traditional mountain bike venues, not only a regular UCI Mountain Bike World Cup fixture but also the third time it has hosted the UCI Mountain Bike World Championship. It was marked by great competitions as well as by innovation: the inclusion of E-Mountain bike. South African Alan Hatherly and Switzerland’s Nathalie Schneitter go down in history as the first-ever E-Mountain bike UCI World Champions after enthralling racing in this new and increasingly-popular format of mountain biking. I am delighted that it now comes under our governance. In terms of social media, it was the most successful UCI Mountain Bike World Championships yet with a record of 3 million video views across all platforms.
