Enjoy the beauty of the Sonoran Desert in spring as you ride one of three new routes designed to accommodate and challenge all levels of cycling abilities.
The Tour de Cure is for EVERYONE! Riders of all athletic abilities are invited to raise funds and ride to fight the epidemic of diabetes. Whether you are in training for a big ride or riding in your first organized cycling event, we have a ride for you.
The 12-mile route is a family and novice-friendly ride through mostly quiet, residential communities in North Phoenix. The 32-mile and Metric Century routes both follow the 12-mile route before heading north on roads that will take you away from everyday traffic. The Metric Century will pass through the beautiful communities of Anthem, New River and Desert Hills, and Cave Creek Recreation Area.
All routes were created by experienced cyclists to provide a safe and memorable riding experience for all participants. Riders will be supported by an enthusiastic team of volunteers at rest stops every 8 – 10 miles, featuring an array of rider-friendly food and beverages, and SAG (Support and Gear) vehicles along the routes. At the Finish Line, our celebration will feature entertainment from a DJ and live band, exhibits, massages, and lunch, provided by Sweet Tomatoes and other food sponsors.
