UCI Granfondo Leiria Region Sicó Lands cancelled due to exceptional circumstances

The Organizing Committee of the new UCI Granfondo Leiria – Sica Lands in Portugal has announced the cancellation of the event for 2026.

In recent weeks, the region has been severely affected by the consequences of Storm Kristin, which has caused widespread disruption across the area. Thousands of residents are still without access to electricity, and hundreds of people remain in need of rehousing. In addition, many restaurants and accommodation units are currently closed, with no clear indication of when they will be able to reopen.

The focus of the region is at this moment primarily to rebuilding the local communities and restoring the basic needs for residents.  Therefore the event won’t take place in 2026 but will be postponed to spring 2027.
