Philadelphia Cycling Classic Returns | Philadelphia News

The Philadelphia Cycling Classic is roaring back after a decade-long break, hitting the streets Sunday, August 30th with high-energy races on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, through Fairmount Park, and up the legendary Manayunk Wall. The weekend kicks off Saturday with amateur events and a fan fest near Eakins Oval, but Sunday brings major road closures from 3 AM to 10 PM — affecting the Parkway, I-66/76 ramps, Kelly Drive, Waterworks Drive, and key Manayunk/Roxborough roads. SEPTA buses 7, 9, and 38 will be rerouted — plan ahead if you’re in the city. This isn’t just a race — it’s a full-city revival with traffic chaos and cycling fever.
