Now in its second year, the Greenville Cycling Classic presented by Prisma Health will return to downtown Greenville, SC, on April 24, 2025, to kick off Speed Week 2025, a series of criteriums in the US states of Georgia and South Carolina.
The Greenville Cycling Classic p/b Prisma Health will welcome some of the top men’s and women’s professional racers from around the United States, including thousands of spectators, to the heart of downtown Greenville for a fast-paced road cycling event.
This event aims to reinforce Greenville’s reputation as a cycling destination by drawing on its history of professional races. In 1986, the Michelin Cycling Classic became the first official pro race held downtown – a tradition that continued for a number of years.
Following that milestone, Greenville emerged as a favoured venue for high-profile competitions such as the Tour DuPont, the Olympic Torch Relay, and several US Professional National Championship events.
Since 2012, the Hincapie Gran Fondo has attracted thousands of cyclists to the city each year to experience the scenic terrain of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
“I’m excited to bring high-speed crit racing back to Greenville for its second year,” said George Hincapie, 17-time Tour de France veteran and five-time Olympian. “This event is a fantastic spring highlight for the entire community to enjoy, further enriching our blossoming cycling culture here in the Upstate.”
