Join the vibrant community of cyclists for the 23rd Annual Tour of the Litchfield Hills, scheduled for Sunday, August 2nd. This esteemed charity ride has been raising funds to support The Cancer Care Fund of the Litchfield Hills Inc. since its inception two decades ago, amassing over $1,600,000 in contributions. Starting at Coe Park in Torrington, you'll embark on a picturesque journey through scenic rural roads and historic villages. Paved paths ensure smooth riding conditions throughout your adventure. The event offers full support with SAG wagons and rest stops, making it accessible for all levels of cyclists. Relish the traditional free picnic awaiting at the end of your ride, a highlight that has become synonymous with this beloved charity event. For early registrants, there's an exclusive perk: the first 700 participants who sign up by July 15th will receive complimentary t-shirts. Marked routes offer diverse terrains and breathtaking views, perfect for both seasoned riders and newcomers alike. Rain or shine, the Tour proceeds as planned, ensuring continuity in its mission to support cancer victims and their families. Registration fees are $50 when completed online before July 16th; after that date, a slight increase of $55 applies. A special incentive awaits those who raise at least $1,500 in donations: a free Tour bike jersey is yours for the asking! However, due to its crucial role as the primary fundraising event, all registrations are non-refundable. To ensure smooth operations, remember to check in at Coe Park on race day. Forming teams can enhance your experience; visit our website for more details and inspiration. Additional donations can be collected from friends, family, or even strangers—make contributions online through the provided link or directly at www.Pledgereg.com.

Note that sag support and rest stops will cease operation by 4 pm to manage logistics efficiently. Stay safe on your ride and prepare for an unforgettable day of cycling camaraderie! Mark your calendars for Sunday, August 2nd, as we gather at Coe Park in Torrington to celebrate another year of unity and support.
