Why Does Pro Cycling Struggle To Crack China?
CYCLING WEEKLY
|October 26,2017
Rivalry and reluctant investors could be to blame
The international peloton completed what was viewed by the riders and staff as a successful inaugural Tour of Guangxi this week in China, a country that despite being the most populous still lags behind in the pro peloton. The People’s Republic fields zero teams and counts only one rider in the WorldTour ranks.
It has, however, made some progress in recent years. It fielded Professional Continental team Champion System, hosted the top-level Tour of Beijing for four years, and celebrated Cheng Ji, the first Chinese cyclist to debut in all three Grand Tours, including the Tour de France in 2014. Although many of these have been fleeting, the Tour of Guangxi has something to build on.
What are the chances of the Tour of Guangxi continuing?
