Welcome

Dear Friends, Thank you for registering for the Benson Healthcare El Tour de Zona, Arizona’s Inaugural Multi-Day Cycling Tour & Festival, beginning Friday, March 25 through Sunday, March 27, 2022! We are so excited to welcome over 700 cyclists from 35 different states throughout our country to enjoy what will surely be a staple on the bike calendar for years to come!

El Tour de Zona is a three-day, fully-supported bicycle tour during the day and a fun festival at night visiting the towns of Sierra Vista, Bisbee and Tombstone. The ZONA is all about having FUN! Enjoy three-days of destination loop bicycle rides mixed with post-ride festivals featuring live music, great food and a local craft beer garden by Dragoon Brewery.

Veterans Memorial Park in Sierra Vista will serve as your basecamp with day loop rides to great destinations like the free-spirited, picturesque town of Bisbee and the wild west of Tombstone, The Town Too Tough to Die!

This is a ride, not a race…. So slow down and enjoy all that the area has to offer. If you need anything during your visit, be sure to ask. We hope you enjoy and come back with friends to ride again!

Enjoy the Ride!

TJ Juskiewicz Executive Director

On behalf of the City of Sierra Vista, I would like to welcome you to our extraordinary community! Sierra Vista is proud to be hosting the very first El Tour de Zona. Our staff has been working with Perimeter Bicycling to gear up for this spectacular event, and we are certain it will be followed by many more. For those who will be spending the night in our Veterans Memorial Park, you will be enjoying one of Sierra Vista’s most picturesque locations and one of our City’s most popular gathering places. For those staying in one of our local hotels, we know you will love Sierra Vista’s hometown hospitality! We know you won’t be able to experience all the wonderful things that make Sierra Vista such a great place—our hiking trails, world-class birding hotspots, nearby wineries and breweries, newly redeveloped historic West End, and the variety of authentic international food served by our local restaurants. But you will have the opportunity to enjoy our night skies, hospitality, neighboring communities—and get a sample of Sierra Vista and Cochise County. We are looking forward to hosting you again for the second annual El Tour de Zona and hope you will visit again even sooner! Frederick Mueller
