An estimated 800,000 adult New Yorkers (almost one in ten) now have diabetes. Diabetes has increased 13% in New York City since 2002. In 2007, 18 of every 100,000 New Yorkers died from diabetes.

The impact of diabetes hits Hispanic, Latino and African American New Yorkers even harder. Almost 20% of Latinos and Hispanics in the New York City market, and 18% of African American New Yorkers, have diabetes. In New York City during 2007, 22 African Americans and 23 Hispanics or Latinos of every 100,000 died from diabetes.

That is why the American Diabetes Association's New York office is so committed to educating the public about how to stop diabetes and support those living with the disease.

The Tour de Cure is a series of fundraising cycling events held in 44 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 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!
