List of teams and cyclists in the 1983 Tour de France

Last updated

The Tour organisation wanted to globalize cycling by having cyclists from the Eastern Bloc in the Tour. Due to them only riding as amateurs, the 1983 Tour de France was also opened for amateur teams. In the end, only the Colombian and Portuguese national amateur teams applied for a place, [1] and the Portuguese team later withdrew.

The 1983 Tour started with 140 cyclists, divided into 14 teams of 10 cyclists: [2]
