So take the Ride of Your Life and sign up today!
There are many programs offered through Tour de Cure:
Team Captains- our Captains are the motivating force behind the success of Tour de Cure. They rally friends, family and co-workers to fundraise and reach team goals. They recruit riders and fundraisers to their team throughout the year and always have a great time on ride day.
Red Riders- Our Red Riders are participants living with diabetes. They are why we ride! Red Riders receive special promotions throughout the year and perks on ride day. At registration, if you are living with diabetes, make sure you select that you are a Red Rider to be part of this special group of riders! Tour de cure recognizes Red Riders as the heros on the day of the event.
Champions to Stop Diabetes- Our Champions are riders who raise $1,000 or more to Stop Diabetes. Champions receive special perks on ride day as well as party to celebrate the great fundraising efforts, including a chance to win a prize valued at $2,000+. Anyone can be a Champion to Stop Diabetes!
Team Red- Team Red welcomes everyone and anyone that wants to find a cure for diabetes. The idea behind Team Red is to provide the opportunity for individual riders with or without diabetes to have a designated team they can join or ban together in the fight to Stop Diabetes and to build the diabetes community.
