What is the ProVelo Super League?
The ProVelo Super League replaced the AusCycling National Road Series in 2025 as the top-tier domestic racing series.
It was a compact block of domestic Australian racing broadcast by SBS and designed to act as a pathway to the WorldTour for up and coming cyclists. The series has been co-founded by Matt Wilson and Aaron Flanagan and is backed by Gerry Ryan.
The men's U23 series winner is awarded a stagiaire contract with Jayco-AlUla and the women's U23 overall winner a one year contract with the Liv-AlUla-Jayco continental development team.
The series started in Adelaide on January 18, when South Australia caught the focus of the cycling world for the Tour Down Under. The SA Kick It event included a Willunga time trial, Victoria Park criterium and a road race in Tailem Bend. In early February the attention turned to Victoria and the revered Australian Classic of the Melbourne to Warrnambool.
The Spirit of Tasmania Cycling Tour then rounded out the February competition before a jam-packed March. It started with the new Harbour City GP – which included two criterium, a time trial and road race over three days – then moved on to the Grafton to Inverell Cycle Classic.
The racing concluded in Queensland, with the four-stage Q Tour. It started with a criterium on Southbank, moved on to a road race and was then followed by a time trial on the same day and the finale of the event and series was a road race in Moreton Bay.
Cyclingnews delivered coverage of every stage of every round, with results available below, and broadcasts can be found on SBS On Demand. There are also highlights of each stage on ProVelo Super League YouTube.
