About The Event

The Bike For Your Life Tour started in 1998 with the hopes of promoting health, family solidarity, and community involvement through a fun cycling event, that all ages and abilities could participate in.

There are distances for everyone, from the 15km, to the 99km tour.

The Bike For Your Life tours are designed to be fun rides in a group environment whether have never ridden before, or you are a hardcore endurance athlete.

The emphasis is on participation, rather than time, to make it fun for an individual or family. Each finisher gets a medal for their efforts.

In order to promote yearly participation we offer the following:

5 years of participation: bronze medal
10 years of participation: silver medal
15 years of participation: gold medal

For the advanced rider, this may be the year to jump to the next distance!

Also, there is a corporate challenge, for the business with the most participants.

Thanks to our corporate sponsors, the entry fees are kept low, so more people can participate.
