Expect cheers for the fastest riders and even louder cheers for the most creative ones. \n\n\n\n𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗼𝘀!Here’s where the crowd gets in on the action. Spectators can buy 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀 to help their favorite rider zoom ahead\, or 𝗦𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 to slow down the competition (all in good fun\, of course!). Want to give your boss a head start? Buy a Boost. You can even 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿’𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 and watch them carry that extra weight all the way to the finish line. Every dollar spent on mischief goes straight to helping our neighbors\, so the more trouble you cause\, the more good you do. \n\n\n\n𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆Tour de Trike is a family-friendly afternoon in the heart of downtown. Bring the kids\, bring the grandparents\, make a sign\, and cheer your loudest. Racers must be 18 or older\, but everybody can be part of the fun from the sidelines. \n\n\n\n𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝘃𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝘁 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀?Rider registration opens October 1. Entry is $100 per rider\, and no team is required.
