40th Annual el Tour de Tucson

November 15, 2023 - November 19, 2023

$15 – $300

El Tour de Tucson is the largest bicycle race in the United States, one of the largest rides in the country and Arizona’s longest-running bicycle event. Always held on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, it attracts over 7,500 cyclists from across the country.

El Tour is a charity event and has raised over $100 million for multiple charitable agencies. El Tour has become known as “the most prestigious bicycling event for cyclists of all ages and abilities.”

There are four rides on Tucson’s scenic roadways to choose from, ranging from 102, to 32 miles. (Registration ranges from $40-$165+) If that sounds too far, you can still participate in one of the three shorter Fun Ride courses (3 and 1 mile) for only $15.

All Rides/Routes start and finish at the Tucson Convention Center and the surrounding area.

  • The Century (7:00am start)
    102 Mile
  • 5K Run/Walk (7:30 am start)
  • 3.1 Mile, certified 5K run/walk
