Choose the ride that's right for you! Cyclists can register for one of four scenic route options: 5, 25, 40, or 60 miles. All routes begin and end at the Westbrook Elks Lodge #1784, located at 142 Seaside Avenue, Westbrook, CT, with staggered start times based on distance.
Participants commit to raising a minimum of $150 to ride. Your registration fee counts toward this fundraising minimum, and every registered cyclist receives a custom Tour de Shore T-shirt.
Tour de Shore is Vista Life Innovations' signature annual cycling fundraiser. Every dollar raised helps empower individuals with disabilities by providing training, support, and opportunities to build confidence, develop meaningful skills, achieve greater independence, and experience a true sense of belonging.
Event day is about more than the ride! Cyclists, volunteers, families, and supporters will come together at the Westbrook Elks Lodge to celebrate the community's commitment to Vista's mission.
After crossing the finish line, join us back at the lodge for a post-ride celebration featuring great food, live music, and exciting raffle prizes.
