The Quarter de France 2025

Download the pdf to getting started: 

The Quarter de France is a 23-day cycling challenge inspired by the iconic Tour de France, running from July 5th to 27th. Over the 21 riding days, you'll cycle a quarter of the distance of each official Tour stage, with two rest days along the way—just like the pros.

The goal? Try to complete each stage. If you finish Stage 1, you become a contender on the official leader board. Stay on track by completing every stage, and you’ll remain in the running to become a YELLOW jersey finisher—and earn the chance to order your exclusive Quarter de France Finisher’s Shirt.

Everything is tracked through our app, where you can follow your progress and see how others are doing too. If you miss a stage, you’ll still be part of the community and can continue riding other stages and even be eligible for daily lucky draw prizes. Contenders who complete all 21 stages also get entered into a final stage prize draw.

Cape Town participants: We’re also organizing a series of group rides to help you complete certain stages together—routes and times will be shared in the WhatsApp group.

Whether you're riding to challenge yourself or just for the joy of it, the Quarter de France is a great way to stay active, have fun, and be part of a supportive cycling community.
