The Tour's tweet drew a number of comments expressing surprise at the move, including some disappointed that the new date would create a clash for them.
The Tour of Battenkill bills itself as America's largest and "toughest" one-day Pro/Am cycling race and draws participants in their thousands from across the US and Canada and further afield.
Riders compete over a 65+ mile loop in the beautiful Battenkill Valley. The course, which starts and finished at the Washington County Fairgrounds, includes infamous gravel sections and has controlled intersections for its entire length.
