Event Highlights

Start a chain reaction and join the American Diabetes Association as we cycle for a cure this summer! The Tour de Cure is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the avid cyclist to the recreational rider.

The 2012 North Dakota Tour de Cure festivities begin Friday evening with the Pre-Ride Pump Up. Stop by to drop off your collections and enjoy a delicious dinner provided by Texas Roadhouse.

The next day, all rides will start with a rousing sendoff from our NEW VENUE, Family Wellness! From there, you will enjoy a ride on one of four NEW routes through the Red River Valley, including a 100-mile Century Ride! All distances feature good to very good riding conditions with well-marked routes, fully stocked rest stops and SAG (safety and gear) vehicles.

When you return, you will be treated to a post-ride party with live entertainment, inflatable games, face painting, free massages, a tasty lunch from Olive Garden and more!

So, what are you waiting for? Choose the course that is right for you. Invite family, friends and coworkers to ride with you and form a team to help Stop Diabetes! Support the mission of the ADA: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. Take the ride of your life and register today!
