Held for the first time within the framework of the UCI Guangxi Road Cycling World Cup, the 2025 Guangxi Open Open Cycling Race attracted more than 200 cyclists, athletes, and cycling enthusiasts from 30 provinces, cities, and localities of China and foreign athletes from Vietnam, England, and Lithuania to compete.
The 2025 Guangxi Open Cycling Championship consists of six stages with a total distance of 327.9km, starting from Fangchenggang City, passing through Chongzuo City, Jingxi City, Debao County, Hechi City, Laibin City and ending in the capital Nanning.

Although it is an open amateur tournament, the racing route is very diverse, including flat roads in the city, steep mountain passes, and acceleration sections for individual results, so it requires a high level of competition skills from the athletes.
On the flat road, athletes need to coordinate with their team to maintain speed against wind resistance and unleash their strength during acceleration. Meanwhile, on the uphill and downhill sections, athletes need to maintain and distribute their endurance appropriately combined with flexible vehicle control skills to gain an advantage in the competition.

This is an opportunity for cycling enthusiasts to experience the competition space of the world's top-class cycling tournament, while also feeling the beautiful natural scenery and diverse culture of Guangxi.

As the world's top cycling race under the International Cycling Union (UCI) competition system, the 2025 UCI Guangxi World Road Cycling Championship includes two events for male and female athletes.
Of which, the male cyclists will compete in six stages in the cities of Fangchenggang, Chongzuo, Baise, Hechi, Laibin and Nanning from October 14 to 19; the female cyclists will compete in only one stage in Nanning city on October 19.

The male cyclists compete in six stages with a total distance of 1,017.1km through various terrains such as urban roads in the city, cross-country roads, mountain climbing and mountain passes...
