The Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah announced Friday night that it is canceling the seven-day Pro Series race scheduled for August 3-9 due to concerns over the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, a new coronavirus. Tour of Utah President Steve Miller said, "The Tour of Utah has made the difficult decision not to hold the race this August with the best interests of the host region, riders, cycling fans, and partners at heart and the health and safety of all participants at the forefront. For the past 15 years, this international cycling event has traveled Utah's scenic byways."

The race, along with the rest of the cycling community, will go on hiatus while the world battles the spread of a pandemic; the UCI recently postponed all sanctioned races until at least June 1, but Utah races have taken extra precautions and are actively canceling events.

The race has previously announced the host cities for 2020, including Zions Bank Real Academy in Herriman City, doTERRA headquarters in Pleasant Grove, Provo, Payson, Woodward Park City, Snowbird Resort, Ogden, Park City Mountain Canyons Village, and Park City. This year, the Tour of Utah became the first UCI Pro Series to be designated an international event, with 17 teams, including five WorldTour teams, committing to race in Utah. We look forward to renewing many of these partnerships for 2021."

Organizers said they expect the race to be included in the UCI's 2021 schedule, which will be announced later this year.

Jeff Robbins, president and CEO of the Utah Sports Commission, said, "The Tour of Utah is Utah's signature sporting event and one of cycling's most respected races. Jeff Robbins, President of the Utah Sports Commission, said, "With international riders, and digital and television coverage around the world, this race is a great showcase of Utah's people and places, and we look forward to bringing the race back in 2021."

[9 Ben Hellmans (Israel Startup Nation) won the 2019 race, followed by past winners Sepp Kus, Rob Britton, Joe Dombrowski, Lachlan Morton, Tom Danielson, Johan Zopp, and Levi Leipheimer.
