2026 USA Cycling Masters Road Nationals: Full Results & Champions
Milwaukee & Wisconsin · June 27 – July 1, 2026 · 800+ athletes · 80 national titles
The 2026 USA Cycling Masters Road Nationals — officially the Masters & Junior Road National Championships — wrapped up July 1 after five days of racing across four Wisconsin venues, with more than 800 riders chasing 80 national titles in the Criterium, Time Trial, and Road Race. Hosted by Tour of America’s Dairyland, this is one of the few events on the calendar where an 11-year-old junior racing for their first Stars and Stripes jersey lines up the same weekend as a 95-year-old competitor defending one for the tenth time.
Below: how the week played out venue by venue, the standout storylines, a selection of national champions by category, and where to find full results for every age group.

Event Overview: Three Disciplines, Four Venues
Racing opened with two days of criterium action tied into the Tour of America’s Dairyland calendar. Juniors, Masters Women 35+, and Masters Men 70+ raced Milwaukee’s fast, four-corner Downer Ave course on day one, before the Masters Men 35-64 fields tackled the Tosa Village Classic in Wauwatosa — a wide-open circuit with a short, punchy climb each lap.
The Time Trial moved to Columbus, Wisconsin, with riders facing 6-, 10.5-, and 13.5-mile courses in near-90°F heat. The week closed with the Road Race at Englewood Grass Farm in Fall River — a demanding course that, combined with the summer heat, turned the final day into a genuine race of attrition.
