Join us this year as we discover Connecticut with our annual tour series! 2024 features two opportunities to participate and get engaged in the community of cycling and walking advocates. Both tours of Connecticut have options for three bike routes (tailored for both recreational and avid cyclists) and a walking route. Food and entertainment are also provided! Events will be held rain or shine. Helmets are required for bicycling routes.

On Sunday, May 19 we’ll start in Hartford and discover Central Connecticut! This event is brought to you in collaboration with the Travelers Employee Cycling Network and will give you a chance to view the trails and routes surrounding our state’s capital city. The tour will begin and end at Atheneum Square and the route will use part of the 3,000-mile East Coast Greenway which travels 200 miles through Connecticut. The tour also serves to recognize Hartford as a certified Bike Friendly Community and Travelers is a certified Bike Friendly Business by the League of American Bicyclists.
