Silver City is getting ready to host some of the top cyclists from the U.S. and around the world for the Tour of the Gila. The five-day bicycle race will start on April 24 with one stage each day.
The event will begin with the UCI men and women cyclists participating in two stages of road racing. Stage three will include an individual time trial, while stage four will feature a race around town. The final stage, stage five, will be the Gila Monster Road Race.
The UCI men’s and women’s fields will include athletes who have competed in major cycling races such as the Tour de France and Vuelta a España, as well as those who have earned Olympic berths.
In addition to the professional cyclists, there will be opportunities for amateur and citizen racers to participate in events throughout the five days. This gives individuals the chance to ride on the same roads as some of the world’s top cyclists.
