Grand Tour

The Grand Tours are three-week bicycle races: the Tour de France, Giro d’Italia, and Vuelta a España. They each consist of 21 stages in 3 weeks and 3,000 to 3,500 km.

Grand Tours test all aspects of a cyclist’s ability—mountain climbing, time trials, sprinting, and remaining strong for extended durations. Teams hire the best at each course type, and riders battle for the overall victory, points, mountain stages, and young rider prizes. A Grand Tour winner must be consistent, supported by the team, and resilient against challenging terrain and conditions. These events are the pinnacle of professional road bike racing, attracting the top competitors and viewers worldwide.
