2013 North Texas Sponsorship Opportunities

The Tour de Cure is a series of fundraising cycling events held in 44 states nationwide to benefit the American Diabetes Association.

The Tour de Cure is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether you ride 10 miles or 100 miles, you will travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans to cheer you on!

Each Tour de Cure event has its own character and style with unique starting points to gorgeous scenery and more! The DFW Tour de Cure starts with a lap on the 1.5 mile oval track of the Texas Motor Speedway and features routes for everyone from a leisurely short distance to a more challenging length – no matter which of the 5, 15, 32 or 62 mile rides you decide, you'll enjoy a fun day on your bike for a great cause!

All riders will enjoy a safe, fully-supported & well-marked route with Route Marshals, SAG (Support & Gear) vehicles, police assistance, medical & mechanical support, and themed Rest Stops stocked with endless amounts of cold beverages & snacks, restrooms, shade & volunteers prepared to handle any needs that arise during the ride. All of our volunteers are experienced and trained to assist in maintaining fun and safe conditions for all riders.

At the finish line, located inside the track, the celebration continues with a cheerful welcome from family, friends & spirited volunteers, a tasty food court themed lunch, thirst quenching beverages, live entertainment, free soothing massages, kid friendly activities, prizes & giveaways, special guest appearances and more!
