Bonjour, fellow cyclists!
The Tour de SYV returns this July, and we’re looking for a few more riders to round out the peloton. Whether you’re chasing glory, coffee, or just looking for an excuse to ride with friends, there’s a place for you on a team.
The format is simple:
🚴 5 stages total 🤝 3 team stages ⚡ 2 individual stages 📅 July 1 – July 27
No previous Tour de SYV experience is required. Ride the stages whenever it fits your schedule, team up with friends, and maybe even earn your place in SYVCC history.

Thanks to our generous sponsor, Zaca Coffee, every rider who participates will receive a $6 gift card. In addition:
🏆 1st–3rd Place Teams: Each rider wins a bag of Zaca Coffee.
🥤 4th–6th Place Teams: Each rider takes home a Zaca Coffee water bottle.
💛 Maillot Jaune Competition: The fastest male and female riders overall will each earn a $20 Zaca Coffee gift card and everlasting bragging rights.
We’re hoping to add a few more riders this year, so if you’ve been on the fence, now is the time. You don’t need to be Tadej Pogačar—just willing to ride, have fun, and occasionally mutter “Allez!” into the headwind.
Interested? Reply to this email and we’ll find you a team.
