Birgit & Natalie ride the tour
To everyone at Dufflets!
We just wanted to say how much we appreciated everyone going out of their way to help us do the Tour de Dufflet! We had a wonderful day of cycling around the City and enjoyed all the treats immensely!
Thanks again, Birgit & Natalie

Tour de Dufflet FAQ
What does the registration fee get me?
Registration fee is not required until you begin your ride, and your $5 will be donated to a local bicycle charity. When you register in person at any Dufflet cafe, you will receive a Dufflet musette bike bag with a map and a passport. With each Dufflet location that you visit you will receive refreshments, and your completed passport gets you a gift certificate and a chance to win in our prize draw at the end of Bike Month!
How many Dufflet cafes do I have to visit, and does it have to be done in one day?
To be eligible for the prize draws, you must visit all 3 locations in one day (from 10am to 5pm anyday EXCEPT Mondays).
To ride the tour, you visit your beginning location twice - the first time to register and pick up your Passport, souvenir bag and map, and at the end to receive the 3rd stamp in your passport. You can visit the locations in any order that suits you.
You will have your choice of refreshments at Stamp locations 1 and 2 - this will be Dufflet bottled water or coffee and a choice of something sweet (like a bar, brownie, cookie etc) or something savoury (like a spanokopita, samosa or slice of pizza).
At the final location (Stamp 3 and the cafe that you started from) you will hand in your passport to be eligible for a grand prize drawing and will receive a gift certificate for $5 off your next Dufflet purchase.

Get Out There
Thanks to everyone who's written to tourdedufflet@gmail.com to let us know that they're planning to participate in our first Tour De Dufflet. Remember, you don't have to formally register until the day that you plan to ride, but we love hearing from you and your enthusiastic feedback is sweet!
Be sure to pick up the current issue of Get Out There magazine for notes and tips regarding Bike Month in Toronto. We're delighted that they've mentioned the Tour de Dufflet in their events section, and they've even included the link to a back issue that profiled Dufflet Rosenberg a couple of years ago. Check out page 16 of the March/April 2006 issue to read up on how the "Queen of Cake" stays fit!
