UCI Europe Tour. The season began on 21 October 2007 with the Chrono des Nations and ended on 16 October 2008 with the Giro del Piemonte

The points leader, based on the cumulative results of previous races, wears the UCI Europe Tour cycling jersey. Alessandro Bertolini of Italy was the defending champion of the 2006–07 UCI Europe Tour. Enrico Gasparotto was crowned as the 2007–08 UCI Europe Tour.

Throughout the season, points are awarded to the top finishers of stages within stage races and the final general classification standings of each of the stages races and one-day events. The quality and complexity of a race also determines how many points are awarded to the top finishers, the higher the UCI rating of a race, the more points are awarded.

The UCI ratings from highest to lowest are as follows:

  • One-day events: 1.HC, 1.1 and 1.2
