San Luis is Argentina's cycling hotbed so it's certainly no coincidence that the second GFNY ARGENTINA will be held there on December 4, 2016. The Tour de San Luis professional race in January has become one of the early season key preparation races. Participants of GFNY Argentina will truly get to Be a Pro for a Day because many of the race crews from Tour de San Luis will also be at GFNY Argentina.

December is summer in Argentina, with 15 hours of daylight and comfortable temperatures, in other words: the perfect cycling conditions. The two course options of 91miles/147km and 56miles/91km offer exceptional riding and racing for anyone.

The city of San Luis is the capital of San Luis Province. It was founded in 1594 and is located at the foot of the "Sierras Grandes" (big mountains) by the river Chorrillos in the area called Punta de los Venados. The city keeps the traditional features of the colonial style with big rambling houses, big residences, high canopies and sunny patios and combines those with a modern style. Neighboring picturesque towns and villages embedded in stunning landscape as well as the warmth of the people make San Luis the ideal place to relax.

Daily flights from Buenos Aires that take just 90 minutes make San Luis easily reachable from anywhere in the world. Airport code LUQ.
