Rider Rally (Tour De Cure)

Save to Favorites

Tour De Cure- a fundraising and awareness cycling event that is held in 44 states, including Texas, to benefit the American Diabetes Association. Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether you ride 10 miles or 100 miles, you will travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans that cheer you on!The Rider Rally is a practice ride for those who have registered and qualified to ride in our Tour De Cure event (scheduled for May 9th, 2015). The Rider Rally event begins with a small breakfast served to the riders. The riders will then follow one of 3 routes (15, 31, 53miles). Along the way, several rest stops will be placed where the riders can take a potty break, replenish their fluids, get first aid, mechanical support and snacks. Once all bikers return to D.W. Rutlege Stadium, lunch will be served.VOLUNTEERS:Set Up Crew- help us set up the event, signs and rest stopsCheck In Crew- help check participants in as they arriveBreakfast Crew- help serve our awesome riders breakfast and coffeeCheer Crew- cheer for our riders, encourage them, have a lot of run!Rest Stop Crew- help guide our riders and assist them as neededMedical Support- provide first aid and medical support to anyone who may get hurt.
