An estimated 6,500 cyclists are taking part in El Tour de Tucson as the event kicked off the morning of Nov. 20, 2021. Participants taking the 102-mile route headed south from the starting line at East 14th Street and South Sixth Ave., near Armory Park.

Cyclists are expected to take at least three hours to complete the 102-mile ride and return to the finish line.

El Tour de Tucson will also host a 57-mile ride and a 28-mile ride later in the day. Video by Jesse Tellez/Arizona Daily Star.
