Tour de Palm Springs - February
8-10
The event was started to promote
having fun while pedaling a bicycle far enough to amaze
friends and co-workers, while at the same time,
volunteering for a good cause. The first Tour de
Palm Springs began in 1998 with just over 300 riders
when Tim Esser rode his bicycle solo for 30 days from
Palm Springs, CA to Jacksonvile, FL for charity. Today,
the Tour hosts nearly 8,000 riders of all ages and
abilities. www.tourdepalmsprings.com
