They say all good things must come to an end, and so it is with Le Tour de Norfolk. This 16th edition will be our last. It hasn’t been an easy decision – many factors played into our decision:
1. Costs are increasing exponentially and it is harder to put on a top-notch event and still keep registration feeds affordable.
2. Since the pandemic sponsorships are way down. Less sponsors, means less money to cover expenses.
3. Every year there is more and more red tape.
4. We’ve had a great group of devoted volunteers. We’re all getting a little older and it is hard to find new volunteers.

See you July 21st.

Unfortunately something has come up and we are not able to use the soccer club for camping. RVs can park way back behind the Delhi arena. If you were planning on pitching a tent, call me at 519-582-1900 and we'll discuss options. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Our volunteers, John and Ron, have been busy painting arrows along the routes. Follow your coloured arrow and you won't get lost. Maps & cue sheets (directions) printed on the corresponding arrow colour will be available. You can also find pdfs of the maps and cue sheet on our website under "Routes".

We've finalized this year's routes taking into account the unexpected, last-minute roadwork. The links below will take you directly to each of the routes on ridewithgps (no app required). As soon as our web guy can he will put these on our website as well as pdfs of the cue sheets and maps. Thank you for your patience!
