The Oita Urban Classic Criterium (formerly Oita Ikoinomichi Criterium) is held on the day before the Oita Urban Classic Road Race. [4]
The race began in 2014 as a JBCF race Oita Cycle Road Race, and it evolved to the UCI-sanctioned race in 2018. In the 2018 season, it was held in October. In the 2019 season, it was held in August to avoid conflict with the 2019 Rugby World Cup which uses Oita Stadium. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the UCI race of the 2020 event was canceled, and the JBCF race was held instead.
