SISU Tour 2026 Finalised: Ready To Roll
Fresh from the roads of Italy and amid the chaos and colour of SISU Pinkki, SISU Racing’s Tour Director has taken the race’s much-needed rest day to make the short hop across the border into France — putting the finishing touches on the 2026 SISU Tour.
With route scouting complete, jersey competitions locked in, sprint and climbing segments confirmed, and the final artwork now lighting up pain caves across the globe, another major milestone has officially been ticked off for SISU Racing’s Tour de France inspired race series.
July 2026 is coming — and with it, the most ambitious SISU Tour in history.
SISU Racing is proud to announce the finalisation of the 2026 SISU Tour, marking another major milestone in the evolution of one of Zwift’s most anticipated community race series. Routes are locked in. Jersey competitions are set. Segment battles have been mapped. And across pain caves around the globe, the artwork of the Tour has already started appearing on screens, walls, Discord banners and dreams.
The fourth edition of the SISU Tour promises to deliver seven stages of intensity, strategy, suffering and glory — inspired by the spirit of the Tour de France, but unmistakably SISU.
For the first time in SISU Tour history, the race will feature two Individual Time Trials, placing a premium on precision, pacing and nerve. Riders will battle against the clock in Stage 1 on Roule Ma Poule and again in Stage 6 on Gentil 8 — two moments where every second matters and nowhere exists to hide.
And then comes the Queen Stage.
Stage 5 — Road to Sky — will send riders toward cycling immortality with the Tour’s ultimate test ascending Alpe du Zwift, inspired by the legendary Alpe d’Huez. It is the climb that will define the Tour. The stage where ambitions crack, heroes emerge, and the Mountain Goat jersey will be won or lost.
From the explosive sprint potential of Knights of the Roundabout to the tactical chaos of Three Musketeers and the iconic five-lap finale on the Champs-Élysées, SISU Tour 2026 has been designed to reward complete riders — climbers, sprinters, rouleurs, time trialists and fearless attackers alike.
But the SISU Tour has always been about more than racing.
It is about shared experience. Shared suffering. Shared stories.
Over recent weeks, SISU creatives and volunteers have worked tirelessly to finalise the visual identity of the Tour — producing stage artwork, race posters and jersey concepts that are already lighting up pain caves across continents. From Australia to Europe, North America to Scandinavia, riders are beginning to feel the energy of July building.
One yellow jersey dream. Seven stages. A global community.
The Tour Jerseys
The Keltainen Jersey – General Classification
The most prestigious prize in the SISU Tour. Inspired by the iconic yellow jersey of France, the Keltainen Jersey is awarded to the overall race leader. It rewards consistency, resilience and the ability to survive every terrain the Tour can throw at a rider. Every second counts in the pursuit of yellow.
The Sprinters Blue Jersey
Built for the fast and fearless. The Sprinters Blue Jersey will be contested across designated sprint segments throughout the Tour, rewarding explosive power, positioning and timing. Flat roads. Furious finishes. Full gas racing.
Which segments ask the sprinters - every sprint segment you fly through!
The Mountain Goat Jersey
The climbers’ crown. Featuring SISU’s distinctive polka-dot inspired design, the Mountain Goat Jersey honours the riders willing to suffer uphill. Points will be earned across key climbing segments, culminating in the brutal ascent of Road to Sky — the Queen Stage of SISU Tour 2026.
Which segments ask the Mountain Goats - TBC.
July is coming.
Let’s go racing.
