Tour de Lincoln 2024
MCBEAN PARK • 65 McBean Park Drive Lincoln, CA 95648 Organized by Lincoln Rotary Club FoundationAbout this event
The inaugural Tour de Lincoln was held May 2002, sponsored by the Lincoln Volunteer Center, beginning as a benefit bike ride, and growing to over 600 cyclists participating. The Tour offers a wonderful day of riding the scenic back roads of Lincoln and South Placer County. Great updated routes this year! The ride is fee based and includes a continental breakfast, well stocked rest stops, SAG and mechanical support along the routes. There is a great post-ride BBQ lunch with beer and wine available.
The event was taken over by Rotary Club of Lincoln in 2018 with proceeds to be used to support our club's charitable projects. The 22nd annual event will be held on Saturday, October 19, 2024. The Tour offers four courses: NEW for 2024 10k route (~6.8 miles), Metric Quarter Century (~16 miles), Metric Half Century (~32 miles), and a Metric Century (~62 miles).
