Alpe Du Zwift Peak
Tour4Kids Special Guest Social
This year, we will be hosting the best Tour4Kids we’ve ever hosted before—featuring a special guest ride to start the tour! This will be a 45 minute social group ride where riders can get to know each other while asking our special guest questions. Stay tuned for the special guest announcement!
Stage 1 – Glasgow Crit Course // Scotland
The opening stage of the 2023 Tour4Kids follows the same course that the 2023 UCI World Championships tackled.
Stage 2 – Lutcher // Innbruck
As the first mountain stage of the tour, riders will be riding up the tough climbs of Innsbruck.
Stage 3 – Cobbled Climbs // Richmond
The second stage of the tour tackles the Cobbled Climbs course in Richmond – another very punchy and exciting route.
Stage 4 – Bologna iTT Course
While it may be just shy of 10 kilometers in length, this time trial is no-joke. Riders will tackle an extremely steep climb to the finish of the stage.
Stage 5 – Mountain Route // Watopia
Before we head to Paris to finish off the tour, there will be one last major chance for riders to make up time in the GC. Best of luck!
Stage 6 – Champs Elysees // Paris
It’s not Tour4kids without the classic Champs Elysees finish. Join us for one final ride of the Tour.
When?
Stages will be taking place on Saturday’s and Sunday’s at 8:30 AM PDT // 3:30 PM UTC // 5:30 PM CEST. Note: You do not need to race these events, feel free to come and chill and enjoy the company of other young Zwifters!
