The Fifteenth Annual Tour de Tilden, set for September 19, 2026, invites cyclists to explore the picturesque rural landscape surrounding Tilden Village Park. Participants can choose from four routes: 5 miles, 10 miles, 20 miles, or a challenging 40-mile journey. Registration opens at 8:00 am and closes by 9:00 am on race day.

The ride will commence from Tilden Village Park, offering scenic views and low traffic conditions along paved roads. Safety and support are paramount: cyclists should adhere to road rules while navigating the course. A SAG wagon equipped with food and assistance is available from 8 am until 1 pm for any unexpected needs during the ride. Lunch, snacks, water, and a t-shirt await riders at Tilden Village Park after their journey. Upon completion of your route, it's essential to check in at the park’s designated table by 1 pm. This ensures all participants are accounted for safely off the course, allowing event organizers to remove signs and close the park promptly. Rain or shine, Tour de Tilden promises an exhilarating experience with breathtaking scenery and a supportive community atmosphere. Mark your calendars for this thrilling cycling adventure!
