Today on The American Cycling Report, we’re joined by someone who has been at the center of major American bike racing for more than three decades. Steve Brunner is a veteran event organizer and one of the most respected marketers in the sport. His work spans everything from the legendary Tour Du Pont and the Tour of California, to the USA Pro Challenge, Tour of Alberta, and of course the Maryland Cycling Classic, where he played a key role in bringing top-tier racing back to the U.S.

Few people have had a closer view of the rise, fall, and ongoing rebuilding of professional road racing in America. Today we’ll talk with Steve about the craft of putting on world-class events, the challenges the sport faces, and where he sees the future of American racing heading.

Three-time U.S. Pro Criterium National Champion Luke Lamperti — one of the most electric American sprinters in decades — is officially joining EF Education–EasyPost, and we’ve got him on The American Cycling Report. We talk Olympics in LA and his dreams, Tour de France for 2026 and a lot more!

The Santa Rosa native talks about the next big chapter of his career, what it means to step onto one of the world’s most dynamic WorldTour teams, his journey from NorCal prodigy to national champion, and where he sees American racing heading in 2025 and beyond.

Lamperti brings power, personality, and the kind of finishing speed U.S. cycling has been waiting for. Don’t miss this one.
