Event Highlights

The Puget Sound Tour de Cure offers five different routes to accommodate all cyclists and abilities. We offer a flat, family friendly 15 mile, a 25 mile scenic route around Lake Sammamish, and our more challenging rides of 45, 70, and 100 miles. Cyclists are sure to enjoy this unique day of fun, fitness, new friendships and the personal satisfaction of completing a ride to help STOP DIABETES.

This is an event like no other. No matter which distance you choose you'll be fully supported with route marshals, SAG vehicles, mechanical support, and rest stops stocked with hydration and a variety of snacks to keep you fueled. At the finish, you will be welcomed with cheering volunteers, great food and much more.

All Puget Sound Tour de Cure routes will start and finish at King County's Marymoor Park in Redmond, WA.
