GFNY Bahamas shines this Sunday

November 6, 2025

It’s GFNY’s second year in the tropical paradise

New York City (November 6, 2025) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – This Sunday, Nassau, the vibrant capital of The Bahamas, will host the second edition of GFNY Bahamas. Cyclists from around the world will take on a flat 60.8-mile course filled with the breathtaking beauty of the Caribbean.

Riders can choose between two distances. The long course is a race and features two loops of the scenic route, while the medium course offers a shorter yet equally exciting challenge for those who prefer a non-competitive ride. Both start and finish at Goodman’s Bay, a park overlooking turquoise waters and white sandy beaches — the perfect backdrop for a world-class cycling event.

“A huge THANK YOU to The Bahamas for making our riders’ dreams come true,” says GFNY President Lidia Fluhme. “Because of the island’s support, riders get to challenge themselves in this spectacular setting. There is no doubt that this race destination is the easiest for friends and family members to join the trip. It might even be them who recommend the riders to choose this particular GFNY.”

Race week kicks off at Goodman’s Bay Park, where activities include GFNY Bahamas’ group rides on Friday and Saturday. On Sunday, cyclists will race on a mostly flat and fast course surrounded by stunning views, making GFNY Bahamas an unforgettable experience for GFNY riders, families and friends.

Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship NYC

Cycling – Pro Racing

At Gran Premio New York City, professional teams race the same course as riders at the Michelob ULTRA GFNY World Championship NYC – but with a 10-minute head start. The third edition will be held on May 17, 2026.

Adding a women’s pro race would elevate the event further. The proposed format would have women starting 45 minutes ahead of the men’s pro race, giving them their own stage. However, the extended road closures required for this addition increase costs by $100,000.

For those interested in supporting women’s racing, GFNY is inviting companies and organizations to help sponsor this important addition. Contact GFNY to discuss partnership opportunities.
