James Piccoli (born 5 September 1991) is a Canadian professional road racing cyclist, who currently rides for UCI Continental team China Glory–Mentech Continental Cycling Team. In October 2020, he was named in the startlist for the 2020 Vuelta a España.[2]

Piccoli rose to prominence in 2018, becoming dominant on the North American circuit, winning the Tour de Beauce, and finishing second overall at the 2019 Tour of Utah in addition to winning the prologue stage.[3] These successes allowed him to sign with Israel Start-Up Nation.
