George Hincapie, a former US Pro road national champion and Tour de France stage winner, and his brother Rich Hincapie are among a collaboration of friends who plan to make a return to the peloton in 2026 with a men's road team, with the intent to register as a UCI ProTeam for international competition.
The story was first broken by Daniel Benson's Substack page on Wednesday evening. In one week, a formal announcement will confirm details about the new US men's pro road team that has input from the Hincapie duo, who last owned and operated the Continental-level Hincapie Sportswear squad in 2020.
