El Tour de Tucson bicycle event and route

El Tour de Tucson bicycle riders will be making their way around Tucson on a 109 mile course tomorrow, Saturday, November 21st.

The tour begins at 7:00 a.m. and ends at 6:00 p.m. at Broadway Blvd. and Congress. About 11,000 bicyclists are participating.

The bicyclists' route will include the west, south, east, and north side of Pima County.

Pima County Sheriff's deputies say the area will be shut down at various times during the day.

Specifically, access to and from the La Encantada Mall will be available only from Campbell Avenue.
Every year more than 8,000 cyclists from all around the world look forward to El Tour de Tucson and like always, organizers are working to make it safer.
