Stores and restaurants can be found along the route in Puyallup, Sumner, Milton and Fife, or bring food from home. Bagels, cookies, fruit and water will be provided to riders at the Riverside Park rest stop. Be prepared and bring sun protection and rainwear. Funds raised by Tour de Pierce will be applied toward Sprocketwoman, a classroom education program that teaches children about bicycle and helmet safety. Since its conception in 1990, more than 50,000 children have been reached by the Sprocketwoman program.
Funds also benefit other youth recreation programs.
A limited number of bike and multisport helmets will be available at the BLUE parking lot. Be head smart and wear a helmet every item you ride a bike, rollerblade or skateboard.
