American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure 2015

A family fun cycling event in support of the American Diabetes Association and diabetes research!

Join the American Diabetes Association for its signature fundraising cycling event, Tour de Cure, on Saturday, June 6th at Washtenaw Community College in Ann Arbor. Tour de Cure is a ride, not a race, with ride options for every skill level!

The ride includes: family-friendly 10 and 20-mile routes, as well as open road 40-mile, 62-mile and-100 mile routes!

A minimum $200 fundraising goal is required per rider which supports research, education and advocacy in support of the American Diabetes Association and the 26 million people in the United States—including over one million people in Michigan—living with diabetes.

Remember! If you have diabetes, be sure to register as a Red Rider to receive special recognition for your courage in living with diabetes every day, including a T-shirt and goodie bag on the day of the ride.
