Registration open for annual Tour de Toad

Registration is open for the 10th Annual Tour de Toad.

An official event of Toad Suck Daze, Tour de Toad raises funds to increase adult literacy in Central Arkansas while encouraging a healthy lifestyle and cycling.

This is the fourth year for the Iron Toad event, where Literacy Action partners with Kiwanis (toadsuckrun.com) to award those that complete the Toad Run and the Tour de Toad ride on Saturday, May 6, with a custom medal. The event will begin and end at Cantrell Field (the new Conway airport).

Cyclists can pick between three routes: a 10-mile (family ride), 25-mile (intermediate) and 50-mile (half-century) route. The three routes increase in intensity as participants go up in miles, perfect for all levels of cyclists. Each route is fully SAG supported with aid stations and bathrooms.

Refreshments will be served at the finish line celebration with Iron Toad medals.

Early registration is $45. Starting midnight Wednesday, May 4, registration is $50. There is also a virtual rider this year, to support Literacy Action even if you can’t make it to the event. The 10-mile family ride is $35 for adults and $20 for youth.
