Trusted by millions. Actually enjoyed by them too.

Morning Brew makes business news something you’ll actually look forward to — which is why over 4 million people read it every day.

Try Morning Brew’s newsletter for free — and join millions who keep up with the news because they want to, not because they have to.

What started as a competitive cycling event has grown into a 12-year tradition that brings thousands of athletes, families, and fans to our shores.

Riders come from around the world to challenge the heat, the wind, and themselves — and locals? We get front-row seats to one of the most electric weekends on the island.

GFNY isn’t just a race. It’s a vibe.

Join the crowd for sunrise on the malecón, music pumping, pros warming up at the start line, kids in their own mini-race, the expo overflowing with bikes, gear, and energy… and the entire island cheering as riders loop the coast, fighting that famous east-side wind and crossing the finish with pure emotion.

This year’s festival includes:

A full race weekend (Nov 14–16) with group rides, pro appearances, and a huge bike expo.
GFNY Kids — the cutest, loudest, most heart-melting race you’ll ever watch.
A mega finish-line fiesta downtown with food, music, and all-day celebrations.
The legendary after-party at Al Mar Beach Club, where medals become margaritas.

If you are a ride, volunteer, cheer, or simply love being part of the island’s biggest annual spectacle — GFNY brings a contagious energy that reminds everyone why Cozumel is called “La Isla del Deporte.”

If you're on the island next November, trust us: you’ll want to be outside for this one.
