WHY WE RIDE!
Tour de Frederick is our annual charity bike ride, benefitting the Rotary Club of Carroll Creek and Boys and Girls Club of Frederick County.
Each year riders and teams come together with a shared goal of raising funds to help both organizations maximize their impact in our community.
Your participation will help the Rotary Club of Carroll Creek distribute over $100,000 in grants to area non-profits as well as scholarships to local kids. Additionally, a portion of the funds raised will support the Boys and Girls Club of Frederick's programming to provide a safe and positive space for young people to learn, grow, and reach their full potential.
OUR MISSION
Increase community engagement, promote healthy lifestyle, and continue to create a safe space for youth in Frederick County.
It's another year of great cycling, community, and camaraderie!

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!
Please note: No biking shoes will be allowed inside of the fire hall. Please plan accordingly with a change of shoes.
Parking & Traffic Flow – Please be sure to carefully follow the traffic patterns as they have changed from previous years. The drive-in entrance on Saturday will be moved so that cars will BOTH enter and exit using the EXIT lane on the side of the fire hall that is closest to Walkersville High School. When approaching the fire hall, please use caution to keep parking volunteers and riders safe.
WHAT TO BRING:
Please bring an ID (required for alcoholic beverages) and money for additional drink tickets, merch, etc. (please avoid using cash). You are also welcome and encouraged to bring lawn chairs and/or a blanket to use while enjoying the finish line party. We would also encourage you to bring a change of clothes. We will have Living Water Showers set up at the Finish Line Party and you are welcome to use their shower stalls to rinse off post- ride.
RIDING SAFELY:
1) Please be sure your bike is in good, working order before you arrive. If in doubt, take your bike to a shop to get a tune-up. We recommend The Bike Doctor and The Bicycle Escape. Their mechanics will be available on Saturday at the event for last minute checks such as pumping up tires, patching holes and etc.
2) You MUST wear a helmet. Riders without helmets will NOT be allowed to ride or will be removed from the course if seen riding without a helmet.
3) Do not ride more than two abreast. Many of these roads are narrow country roads. Please do not take up a whole lane of traffic by riding more than two abreast. SAG vehicles have been told to break this up if they see it on course.
4) Obey all traffic laws. If you see a red light or STOP sign...you must stop! The roads are not closed, and you will be riding with vehicles on the road. Riders seen breaking traffic laws will be removed from the course.
REST STOPS:
There will be a total of 6 rest stops on the course. Century riders will pass all 6, the Metric will pass 4, and the Club Ride will pass 2. When you are entering or leaving a rest stop, make sure you know your surroundings and signal or tell people what you are doing to avoid an accident. Make sure to thank our great rest stop sponsors who are out there to support you!
Water, Gatorade, peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, granola bars, and bananas will be at every stop and each stop will have their own special treats for riders. Rest stop times will be printed on the cue sheets.
COURSE NOTES:
The Century route will be marked with PINK arrows, the Metric Century with GREEN arrows and the Club Ride with ORANGE arrows.
The Family Ride is not marked because it will have a guide and the cue sheets will be provided. The route is also uploaded into RIde with GPS.
