Stage 10

Argentina – South America
September 29 to November 22, 2026

The Argentine stage of Jimmy Pelletier’s World Tour will be a loop starting and ending in Buenos Aires, the vibrant capital of Argentina. Leaving this lively metropolis, Jimmy will head south along the Atlantic coast, passing through seaside towns like Mar del Plata, where he will ride alongside long beaches and enjoy the sea breeze, but also face strong coastal winds.

Continuing along the coast, Jimmy will leave the maritime landscapes behind and enter the vast Argentine Pampas, a sprawling expanse of lush plains and farmland. This region, characterized by long, straight, and monotonous roads, will test his mental and physical endurance, especially with the persistent winds typical of the area. The wide-open rural stretches will create a sense of solitude, offering stark but raw beauty.

The route will also take him through cities such as Tandil and Bahía Blanca, where the terrain becomes slightly more rolling. In regions like Sierra de la Ventana, Jimmy will encounter gentle climbs and undulating hills, providing a welcome change from the predominantly flat Pampas.

Finally, Jimmy will return to Buenos Aires, completing this Argentine loop. This stage will showcase the natural diversity of Argentina, alternating between endless plains, exposed coastal roads, and rolling hills, while challenging him with favorable yet demanding weather conditions, especially due to the winds.
