Eat More Cake, Ride More Bike - Tour de Dufflet 2014!

.


The 7th annual Tour de Dufflet will take place from May 27 to June 30, 2014.
 

Schedule: Daily except Mondays (rain or shine)
 

Tuesdays to Saturdays 10am - 7pm
 

Sundays 12pm - 5pm

Get a little exercise and something sweet by cycling to all 3 Dufflet cafés in one day!

Registered participants will receive a souvenir and refreshments as they get their passports stamped at each Dufflet location.

A $5 registration fee (payable on the day of your ride) will be donated to Cycle Toronto (cycleto.ca).

You will visit your first café only once to register and to receive stamp #1 in your passport. You may tour our 3 locations in any order.


Refreshments offered include bottled water or regular coffee and a choice from that day’s brownies or savoury snacks (samosa or spanokopita). Available items will change daily.

At your final location (stamp #3) you will hand in your stamped passport to be eligible for a grand prize draw at the end of Bike Month.

 
Groups - because our cafés are quite small, we ask that you please stagger your starts and arrivals into foursomes about 10 minutes apart to allow our cafe staff enough time to serve both our regular customers and Tour de Dufflet participants.

Visit tourdedufflet.blogspot.com and follow @tourdedufflet for updates throughout Toronto Bike Month.
 

PS/ Tweet your TdD photos with the hashtag #TourDeDufflet to be eligible for additional prizes!

mec toronto bikefest plus tour de dufflet equals a day in the park

.

You still have time to bike over to Bellwoods Trinity Park to take in rides, buys and clinics at Mountain Equipment Coop's Bikefest (til 6pm tonight).

Be sure to check out the Dufflet table for treats like maple shortbread and gluten-free chocolate brownies plus info on our Tour de Dufflet which kicks off it's 6th year on Tuesday, May 21.

I'll be posting more pix on our Flickr page, but here's the MEC booth at the entrance, Nedra setting up the Tour de Dufflet table, and Dufflet Rosenberg with Elliot from Sapient Toronto. 

Beauty day, come on down!
