TourBadge2014WNewton | Newton MA News and Politics BlogThe 2nd annual Tour de Newton will be held on Fathers Day, Sunday June 15.

The annual Tour de Newton is a great event for kids, adults, and casual bicyclists.  The ride starts simultaneously in all 13 villages.  You’ll  be riding with your village neighbors and have a trained leader/sweep to guide you. The 20 mile, 13 village fun ride stops at each of Newton’s villages, where you’ll be welcomed with refreshments, a village badge, and an overview of the village by the locals.  Ride the whole 20 mile loop, or just a few villages, whichever you like.  It’s a great fun way to see and learn about the whole city.

This year, we’ve got a new design for the village badges thanks to graphic designer extraordinaire Heide Werner.  If you want to ride, sign up soon because its filling up quickly.  If you don’t want to ride we could use your help as a Village Greeter.  It’s a fun job, bring a few friends or family and its more fun.  Send me an email ([email protected]) if you’re interested
