As this is a family-friendly tour (not a race), there are routes to suit bicyclists and walkers of all ages and abilities. For bicyclists, there are two on-road routes and one car-free paved loop entirely within Brookdale Park suitable for the youngest riders. Bikers can use the ABC&H checklist to prepare:
A = Air
B = Brakes
C = Chain (the recent rain made me re-lubricate my chain)
H = Helmet & hydration
The walking route traverses a paved portion of the yellow-blazed Lenape Trail and also a small shopping district – sensible shoes are suggested, but hiking boots would be a bit much.
Register here for the Tour. I'm going to be a bike marshal, so will be flitting hither and yon in my orange Staff shirt (and my traffic cone orange socks, if it's not too hot) on Tour day – I hope to see you there!
