GFNY is a personal endurance challenge where you compete against others, the clock and yourself. GFNY NYC serves as the GFNY World Championship for the GFNY World Series of races.

GFNY World events provide you that same challenge in locations around the world. Additionally, you get the chance to qualify for a front corral start at the GFNY World Championship in NYC.

All GFNY events provide the following for you to BE A PRO FOR A DAY with a mass start, chiping timing with awards for all categories on Closed roads or police moderated traffic that ensures you don't have to stop during the race.

All GFNY World races offer the long marathon route, which is 110-180km long, and a medium route that is 40-90km long. Every finisher, regardless if they finish the long route or medium route, receive a Finisher Medal.

The Long Route finishers are ranked by finish time, and age group podium winners are invited on the podium during the Awards Ceremony.

The Medium Route is not competitive. Riders are chip timed start-to-finish, however the finish times are listed alphabetically by the rider’s last name.

The 14th annual Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship New York will be held on May 17, 2026. The race features the world’s most international peloton with riders from over 90 countries. It is so international that it’s often described as the United Nations of cycling. Athletes take on a challenging route to compete against each other, the clock, and themselves in a personal endurance challenge.

At Gran Premio New York City, professional teams race the same course as riders at the Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship NYC – but with a 10-minute head start. The second edition will be held on May 17, 2026 and aims to be at UCI 1.1 level with World Tour teams racing.

2026 NYC Bike Expo to be held on May 15-16

The NYC Bike Expo returns for its 14th annual edition, taking place May 15–16, 2026 in Fort Lee. The premier road cycling show will once again attract thousands of visitors, including avid cyclists, endurance athletes, and cycling enthusiasts from around the world.

14th NYC Bike Expo 2026 to be held on May 15-16

Exhibitors will present the latest in cycling technology, gear, and events. Exhibiting brands have included Mercedes, T-Mobile, BMC, Ekoï, DeRosa, Mavic,  Specialized, Pinarello, Campagnolo, ELITE, Cannondale, Vittoria, and many more. NYC Bike Expo offers a unique opportunity for brands to showcase their products, connect directly with athletes, and engage with an international cycling audience.

Serving as the mandatory in-person packet pick-up for athletes racing the 14th Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship NYC and the 3rd UCI pro race Gran Premio New York City, the expo is also open to the public with free admission, drawing non-GFNY participants and cycling fans eager to experience the excitement of race weekend.

In-person exposure opportunities are more rare these days so they are even more valuable than they used to be,” says GFNY President Lidia Fluhme. “The touch and feel of products remains important for consumers, whether they end up buying on the spot or field items for their next online purchase. We go to expos ourselves for direct interactions with riders. There is no better way to get a pulse on what riders want than talking to them face to face.

Located once again in Fort Lee, NJ, the venue places the expo at the heart of GFNY and GPNYC during race week. Visitors and exhibitors benefit from easy access and ample affordable parking. The expo is integrated with race activities and lies near the start/finish point of the pre-race group rides.

Exhibitors can choose to participate for two or three days. The main expo runs Friday and Saturday, May 15–16, with an optional race-day exhibition on Sunday, May 17, offering additional visibility to race participants and spectators.

Booth options include outdoor spots in front of the Expo tent, ideal for smaller exhibitors or those with trailers and non-traditional setups.

Exhibitors are invited to contact Santiago at santiago@gfny.com to reserve booth space.
