On November 9, L’Étape Mazatlán by Tour de France 2025 turned the Pacific coast into the heart of international cycling. The event welcomed cyclists of all levels, offering three routes: the Sprint (37.7 km), the Short (65 km), and the Long (112.4 km).
The event was a festival of sport and families, as national and international cyclists rode coastal routes in a spirit of community. Warm, clear weather graced the entire day, while security measures, technical support and logistical efforts ensured a safe experience for competitors, visitors and local residents.
Families lined the streets to cheer, visitors enjoyed Mazatlán’s cuisine and scenery, and cyclists experienced the thrill of a Tour de France-style race in an energetic and welcoming atmosphere.
