Welcome to the 2023 Cape Town Cycle Tour

The 45th Cape Town Cycle Tour, the biggest timed bike race in the world, will be held on Sunday, 12 March 2023.

Primarily, the Cycle Tour provides a glorious day out for tens of thousands of cyclists, no matter the weather. For just one day of the year, human power rules the roads of the fairest cape in the whole circumference of the earth (Sir Francis Drake, 1579).

It’s not all about riding legally on freeways, though; in the months following the Cycle Tour, millions of rand are plowed back into the communities the 109km route crosses through the ongoing work of the event principals, the Pedal Power Association and the Rotary Club of Claremont.

Where The Money Goes

Every cent of the proceeds from the Cape Town Cycle Tour, and its sub-events, is channeled back into the communities that host the event.

Through the Pedal Power Association and the Rotary Club of Claremont, nearly R50 000 000 has been redistributed cross the Cape Peninsula in the last five years.

The PPA focuses primarily on cycling development projects and improving road safety for all cyclists, while Claremont Rotary’s drive is into numerous social upliftment projects that improve the lives of those in need in local communities.
