Tour de Lakes

Tour de Lakes is a bike ride in memory of Tom Logan, who believed there was nothing like a “great bike ride” with friends. Tom was born in Sedalia, Missouri, and attended NE Missouri State on a track scholarship. He taught and coached at East High School and The Barstow School. Tom’s love of running led him to a job as a sales rep for Nike. His “dessert” at the end of a busy day was coaching his sons Brett, Jay, and Ryan and their friends in soccer. Tom Logan … husband, father, friend, and coach … passed away unexpectedly at the age of 52 after suffering an aortic dissection. We miss you, Tom.
