Argentinean journalist Marcelo La Gattina’s Twitter page on Thursday morning was full of news that South America’s most high profile race, the Tour de San Luis, would not run in 2017.

The race has reportedly been cancelled due to top riders preferring the Tour Down Under, while organsiers have a lack of funds. However, the UCI promoted the Tour de San Juan, scheduled to be held between January 24 and 29, to 2.1 status, so some pro teams may still race in Argentina in 2017.
