The 13th edition of the Tour of Oman took place in February. The Sultanate of Oman wants to use its event as a promotional tool.

The country's elite have developed a passion for cycling since 2010. Oman is benefiting from the know-how of ASO, the organizing company of the Grande Boucle which has transposed almost its entire system to Oman. The Omanis want more and dream, one day in the future, of seeing their national team compete in the Tour de France.
