The beautiful Mexican state of Chiapas had its wonderful cycling race that started on the 24th of November and ended on the 29th.
It's a road race that lasts 6 days with 7 stages, having the first 2 stages on the first day.
It's been said by American and European professional cyclists that competing in Mexico is very challenging because Mexican and Latin American cyclists in general "love" to attack at all times -allow me to laugh, because IT IS TRUE! But that is the way hot blooded Mexicans and Latin American like it and that's what makes this kind of race so fantastically exciting!
