What is the Loop de Loop?

Loop de Loop is a fun and informal kickoff ride where cyclists can meet El Tour charity partners at designated station stops along the Chuck Huckelberry Loop. It’s a great opportunity to:

  • Learn about local non-profits and their missions
  • Connect with teams you can ride for during El Tour de Tucson
  • Start your fundraising or volunteer journey with a meaningful cause

 

Team Access Partners Will Be There

While Team Access will not be attending Loop de Loop in person, our partners, including the Wounded Warrior Project and Southern Arizona Adaptive Sports (SAAS), will be participating in the event. They’ll be available at their station stops to:

  • Share information about their organizations and the communities they serve
  • Invite riders to join their teams for El Tour de Tucson 2025
  • Talk about their missions supporting veterans and adaptive athletes

This is a great opportunity for riders to learn more about these impactful groups and explore riding on their behalf in this year’s El Tour.

Interested in Partnering with Team Access?

Team Access proudly supports organizations that serve the adaptive community. If your nonprofit or sports program supports adaptive athletes—and especially if you have a handcycling team—we’d love to invite you to ride as part of Team Access in El Tour de Tucson.
