By Lindsay Advocate

Come out for the ride of your life as the 21st Annual Kawartha Lakes Classic Cycling Tour is on August 24.

This fun-filled event attracts hundreds of cyclists each year from around the province and is a cycling tour that you won’t want to miss. Routes will suit all skill levels. Families are encouraged to come and enjoy the trail rides.

This year they are offering a brand-new venue, the Salvation Army Lindsay Community Church.  This venue will provide cyclists with a comfortable environment to relax after their ride and offers free Wi-Fi.

The Route Master from the Kawartha Cycling Club has designed all new scenic road routes (50 km, 100 km, 160 km) and trail routes (20 km, 40 km) throughout Kawartha Lakes.  All routes are fully supported with rest stops equipped with restrooms.

The Kawartha Lakes Classic offers many benefits to cyclists this year. Title sponsor, Boston Pizza in Lindsay, will be providing all registrants with a hot pasta lunch (with meat, vegetarian, and gluten-free options) and Caesar salad.  They are also offering the amazing opportunity to receive a free Biemme event jersey when you fundraise or donate $200.00 or more. Teams are encouraged to participate.  Westerby’s Entertainment will be providing musical entertainment for our cyclist’s enjoyment.

One of the sponsors, the Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham – Lindsay is offering a special Traveller’s 10 per cent discount on your stay when you register for the Kawartha Lakes Classic. In addition to the discount, participants will receive two free tickets to a mainstage production at the Grove Theatre, while quantities last.

Committed volunteers from the Kawartha Cycling Club help coordinate this event with A Place Called Home every year, ensuring that the Kawartha Lakes Classic is a great cycling tour for everyone to enjoy.
