Answer: Tour de France

The largest cycling event in the world is the Tour De France.  The Tour De France is an annual men’s cycling event held in France. It is the oldest of the grand cycling tours and is generally considered the most prestigious. 

Tour De France consists of 21 stages, each a day long, over the course of 23 days, coinciding with Bastille Day. The cycling contest began in 1903 sponsored by the French newspaper L’Auto. The competition is currently run by the Amaury Sport Organisation. 

The race has been held every single year since 1903 with the exception of the two World Wars. As the contest gained in popularity, cyclists from all over the world started partaking in what was initially a very French local competition. 

While Tour De France is a men-only competition, a Tour De France Femmes was initiated in 2022. This is part of the UCI Women’s World Tour.
