Verge Returns as Official Leader Jersey Sponsor of the Tucson Bicycle Classic for 2026
February 10, 2026

NEW YORK (February 10, 2026) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ — Verge, a leading innovator in custom cycling apparel, will once again partner with the Tucson Bicycle Classic for the 2026 edition of the race. As part of the collaboration, Verge will supply the official leader jerseys awarded to the top riders in the general classification across all categories.
Taking place February 19-22, the Tucson Bicycle Classic remains one of the most respected stage races in the U.S. and traditionally marks the unofficial start of the road racing season, with Arizona hosting many of the country’s first major competitions of the year.
This year’s leader jerseys will be produced using Verge’s premium TOR model — an elite, aero-focused race jersey engineered to reduce drag, optimize fit, and help riders perform at their fastest when every watt counts.
Charlie Issendorf, Director of Sales & Marketing at Verge, shared his excitement as the event approaches:
“We’re excited to continue our involvement with the Tucson Bicycle Classic as race weekend gets underway. Races like this capture the intensity that make cycling so special, and we’re proud to support the athletes competing for the leader’s jersey. Verge is committed to advancing performance and supporting the sport, and we’re looking forward to an incredible weekend of racing.”
