Despite the UCI confirming its dates for 2026 only two weeks ago, the Herald Sun Tour will in fact not go ahead next year, after the latest attempt to revive the Australian stage race failed once again.
The organisers of the race announced in April their intention to revive the race, which hasn't been run since 2020, with Scott McGrory and Grace Brown as race directors for the men's and women's races, which were set to be five stages each with equal prize money.
