Sibiu Cycling Tour 2026

Sibiu Cycling Tour 2026 sends the field through four stages in the Carpathian foothills. Matthew Riccitello defends the title after winning in 2025. The race rewards climbing ability and tactical consistency across a compact stage race format.

Riccitello proved he can handle this terrain. Lipowitz won in 2024 and could return. Storer has won here before at this level of racing. The field typically includes a mix of emerging talents and experienced stage racers competing outside the Tour de France window.
