LINDSAY, ON –A fundraising ride is fast approaching for  Kawartha, Ontario, based nonprofit A Place Called Home.

The 21st Annual Kawartha Lakes Classic Cycling Tour is on August 24th and organizers are hoping for, and expecting, the best cycling tour so far.

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. They offer routes to suit all skill levels. Families are encouraged to come and enjoy our trail rides.

This year the organization is 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 the beautiful City of Kawartha Lakes. All routes are fully supported with rest stops equipped with restrooms.

The Kawartha Lakes Classic offers many wonderful 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.

The fundraisers are also offering the amazing opportunity to receive a free Biemme event jersey when participants fundraise or donate $200.00 or more. Teams are encouraged to participate. Westerby’s Entertainment will be providing musical entertainment for cyclist’s enjoyment.

One of the sponsors, the Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham – Lindsay is offering a special Traveller’s 10% 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 main stage production at the Grove Theatre, while quantities last. A perfect getaway for the avid cyclist.

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.
