Event Information
Take the ride of your life at the 2009 Tour de Cure! The 2009 Hampton Roads Tour de Cure will have one start/ finish location! All routes will loop Hickory High School. Century riders will cross the state line into NC and travel through Currituck and Camden counties. The 30-mile and 65-mile routes will remain the same. The 25-mile and 50-mile routes in the Outer Banks have been eliminated due to low ridership. We have added a 10-mile Family Fun Ride! All routes will loop Hickory High School.

All rest stops are complete with bathrooms, fruit, energy bars, water, sports drinks and other snacks. SAG support vehicles will be on hand just in case you need them.

Tour de Cure is a series of fund-raising cycling events held in 40 states nationwide to benefit the American Diabetes Association.
The Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether participants ride 10 miles or 100 miles*, they will travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans to cheer them on!
Last year, more than 32,000 cyclists in 78 Tour events raised nearly $13 million to support the mission of the ADA: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.
