  • THEME DAYS

1 month and counting!

We're exactly one month away from the 50th anniversary of the Tour of MN, and we're so looking forward to seeing you all!


COMMUNICATION DURING BIKE TOUR: We will post important info in camp each morning and also do evening announcements before dinner. However, one of the main ways we will communicate updates to participants during the actual tour is through the (free) Remind app on your mobile device.

Click one of the links below to access the app ahead of the tour when you for sure have Wi-Fi available.


Pick the group below that you feel applies best to you to sign up...


ROUTES: Here are the official routes, complete with maps and turn-by-turn directions. To access them, simply go to this link for Ride with GPS, where you will be able to download them to your mobile device. If you do not already have an account, you will need to sign up for one. It's free. If you already have an account, you may have to log out first to access the 2024 TOM routes.


NOTE: If you want hard paper copies, you will need to print them yourself ahead of the event using these links below. Day #4 is the rest day so there is not a map for that day.

Day 2 (2 day sampler route)

Day 2 (full route)

(VIRTUAL) Q&A OPPORTUNITY: Back by popular demand, we are holding a virtual meeting on Wednesday, May 22 at 8 p.m. (Central time) where you will hear firsthand from the TOM Director and staff, "meet" some fellow riders, AND get to ask questions weeks ahead of the actual event. The meeting will be through Google Meet and will open up 15 minutes beforehand so you can work out any technical issues before we start that night.

Use this link on the 22nd.


THEME DAYS: To help you plan, here are the themes for the week.

Sunday, June 16 (STATE & SCHOOL PRIDE) rep your state or alma mater

Monday, June 17 (MILITARY & FIRST RESPONDERS)

Wednesday, June 19 (TOUR OF MN) wear something for the social

Friday, June 21 (WACKY DAY) get creative!


HOTELS: If you are a "weeklong" rider staying in a hotel at all during the bike tour, please fill out this survey to help us know where to bring your luggage. If you've already filled it out, no need to do it again.


BIKE JERSEYS: The online store for the commemorative bike jerseys closed back in April. However, there will be another opportunity to order bike jerseys the week after the bike tour. We just need 5 orders to do a reprint.


Look for another message about 2 weeks before the actual bike tour!

For now, check out the tabs below!
