About the Event

Tour de Turns is an inspiring charity bicycle ride and walking event that has been turning heads since 2012. This unique fundraiser benefits Nourish Up, formerly known as Loaves & Fishes/Friendship Trays, Inc., a local organization dedicated to addressing hunger in the community.
Participants can choose between cycling or walking routes designed to showcase scenic areas while raising awareness and funds for those in need. Cyclists will navigate through picturesque landscapes on carefully planned courses that highlight both urban and rural beauty. The event offers various distances suitable for riders of all skill levels, ensuring a challenging yet rewarding experience for everyone involved.
For walkers, the route follows sidewalks and shoulders to ensure safety by adhering strictly to traffic laws. Participants are reminded to stay off busy streets and remain on designated pathways throughout their journey.
Tour de Turns is more than just an athletic challenge; it’s a community-driven initiative that brings together individuals passionate about making a difference in their local area. The event has already raised over $500,000 since its inception, demonstrating the power of collective action to combat hunger and support those facing food insecurity.
For businesses or organizations interested in sponsoring Tour de Turns, detailed information is available through the 2026 TdT Sponsorship Information Packet.
Join us at Tour de Turns for a day filled with camaraderie, scenic routes, and a shared commitment to creating positive change.
