TDA Global Cycling 2024: A Look Ahead

 

Note: Updated January 22, 2024

In case you missed it, 2023 was an amazing year for TDA Global Cycling! We hosted over 300 riders on 11 tours around the world. They challenged themselves, physically and mentally, while exploring the world and making new life-long cycling friends along the way. We invite you to join in on the fun and adventure this year.

In 2024, we offer you 10 exciting cycling adventures; covering 54,475 kms, passing through 41  countries on 5 continents. From cycling in the verdant rainforests of Uganda to spinning across the endless Salt Flats in Bolivia to pedalling past the historic Leaning Tour in Pisa, our 2024 tours offer you an exciting glimpse into some of the planet’s most amazing sights, all from the seat of your bicycle.

You will see that several of the sold out tours have a waitlist. If you are interested in one of them, we do encourage you to add your name to the list as several spots usually open up as the tour draws closer.

Here’s a look at the schedule.

Tour d’Afrique (Cairo – Cape Town)

In January, our flagship African expedition will depart from Cairo taking riders across the continent to the finish line in Cape Town. Due to the security situation in Sudan and Ethiopia, riders will skip those countries, instead cycling through Rwanda and Uganda.
