To begin with, Hincapie grew up in Queens, New York, the son of a Colombian immigrant who was a successful cyclist in his home country. Together with his brother Michael, he began cycling and rode his first cycle races in Central Park.

Hincapie participated in the Tour de France 17 times and ended the tour 16 times; he was regarded as the noble helper of Lance Armstrong and was the only team colleague who was at the helm of all seven of Armstrong’s ‘victories’. In Armstrong’s last success in 2005, he came 14th and was able to win a heavy Pyrenean stage after being involved in an escape attempt on behalf of the team as a watchdog. After Armstrong’s provisional resignation, Hincapie finished 2nd in the Prologue of the 2006 Tour de France, behind Thor Hushovd.
Even in one day racing Hincapie was successful. He won three times the American road championship, and in 2001 the classic Gent-Wevelgem. However, he could never win his favourite race Paris-Roubaix, his best position in the aforementioned race was 2nd in 2006.

In the autumn of 2012, Hincapie admitted to having used doping during his career until 2006. Together with another ten former team mates, Hincapie was charged by US Drug Administration, accepted a reduced suspension for six months and a disqualification in all races between 31st May 2004 and 31st July 2006.
