The race, founded by Larry H. Miller in 2004, was canceled this year because of financial constraints. Its fourth edition is scheduled for Aug. 13-17 and will cover 342 miles and 30,000 feet of climbing over the five days.
"The purse is $75,000, which includes a brand-new automobile," Terry McGinnis, the Tour's executive director, said in a statement. "We're expecting more than 120 cyclists from the best teams in North America.
"This tour draws national attention, top-tier athletes and will likely be one of only 25 USA Cycling National Race Calendar events."
Promoters were able to resurrect the Tour by restructuring financial operations, eliminating two of the seven stages and focusing on attracting domestic teams.
