The Gran Premio di Lugano (English: Grand Prix of Lugano) is a road bicycle race held annually in Lugano, Switzerland.[2] Prior to 1981 it was held as an individual time trial but in recent years it has been organised as a 1.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour.[3] In 2013, the race was cancelled due to snowfall.[4]
