Event Highlights
This is Michigan's best supported cycling fundraiser to Stop Diabetes! We offer routes for all levels of cyclists and a mountain bike option. There really is a ride for everyone!
Many people will participate in the Tour de Cure for the stimulating competition, camaraderie and physical cycling challenge, but the real reward comes in knowing that every mile we ride and every dollar we raise brings us that much closer to stopping this disease that affects nearly 26 million Americans.
Be one of more than 50,000 riders nationwide committed to helping us Stop Diabetes! From coast to coast, in over 43 states, the Tour de Cure is changing the future of diabetes!
