The ADA 2016 S.C. ADA Tour de Cure

On Saturday, May 21, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) will host the S.C. Tour de Cure, in Columbia. Starting at the beautiful and historic Robert Mills House and Gardens, located downtown, this race for an important cause impacting many lives in our state is more than just a cycling event. This year’s goal is $320,000. Celebrating its 25th year, the Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether participants ride 10 miles or 100 miles, they will travel routes supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans to cheer them on. The Tour de Cure allows riders of all levels to join forces in the fight to stop diabetes by raising critical funds for diabetes research, education and advocacy in support of the ADA. Whether an individual is an occasional rider or an experienced cyclist, there is a route for all skill levels.

Cost: $15 registration fee. Location: Robert Mills House and Gardens, 1616 Blanding St., Columbia. For more information, including start, end times and route details, call 803-799-4246 (ext. 3291), email [email protected] or visit Tour.Diabetes.org.
