Lee’s Summit, MO – Lee’s Summit Parks and Recreation invites cyclists of all ages and abilities to hit the road for the 25th Annual Tom Logan Memorial Tour de Lakes bike ride on Saturday, May 16, beginning at 7:00 a.m.

This milestone year continues a long-standing community tradition, offering fully supported routes designed for every level of rider. Participants can choose from distances ranging from a relaxed 10-mile loop around Longview Lake to a challenging 62-mile ride that travels past five scenic lakes: Longview, Raintree, Lakewood, Blue Springs, and Lake Jacomo.

Early registration is now open, with discounted pricing available through May 15 at 7:30 p.m.:

• $32 for riders ages 13 and under

• $37 for riders ages 14 and up

After the early registration deadline, fees increase to $37 for youth and $42 for adults.

Rider safety remains a priority. Helmets are required for all participants, and riders under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. All participants must also sign a waiver prior to riding.

More than just a cycling event, Tour de Lakes continues to bring the community together in support of local parks. Proceeds benefit the Legacy for LS Parks Foundation, helping enhance park facilities and expand recreational opportunities throughout Lee’s Summit.
