Eroica Cuba 2025: The classic cycling competition returns to Viñales

Eroica Cuba 2025, the experience that combines the passion for classic cycling with the magic of Cuba, returns for its second edition in Viñales, one of the most famous and beautiful tourist destinations on this Caribbean island.

The event’s organizing committee announced that registration opens from September 16 to October 31 through the MYEroica platform (https://eroica.cc/es/cuba).

All interested parties, whether professional or not, are welcome to participate and to join the adventure of pedaling through landscapes that look like something out of a postcard: paths among palm trees, towns full of history, and the warmth that only Cuba can offer.

“This isn’t just a race, it’s a tribute to the spirit of cycling of yesteryear, with classic bicycles, retro style, and a community that follows every pedal stroke,” organizers note on their website.

Giancarlo Brocci, a pioneer of this initiative, posted on the Eroica Cuba 2025 website: “With Eroica Cuba, we have brought a message of peace and solidarity, even more so at a time when strongmen dictate an even stricter rule than when the world was divided into blocs. And we have learned the lesson that, at least periodically, it is very good to reflect on those who think the benchmark is always material well-being. In Cuba, a mild winter for cycling training, we try to untie some of the knots in the tangle of neuroses that the money-success spiral induces in many of us in the “rich” neighborhoods of the world. We will return to Eroica Cuba on November 14, also to try to understand that the concept of wealth can be rewritten from the hearts of respectable people.”
