Tour De Chesapeake Mathews Cycling Event
May 16, 2020
8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Located in Mathews, VA, on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay, the Tour de Chesapeake cycling event, now in its 22nd year, offers rural, flat roads that all lead to water. There are 4 concise routes ranging from 23 to 101 miles in length, which take cyclists from our own Gwynn's Island to Bethel Beach to the New Point Lighthouse. Each route has fully stocked rest stops, SAG support and lovely views galore! We are the only ride that offers a WATER TAXI on an authentic Chesapeake Bay Deadrise within one of the routes! Our ride culminates on Saturday evening with a Seafood Feast and Party at the Wharf, at the Riverfront Pavilion at historic Williams Wharf Landing.
The supported ride is all day on Saturday, but we hope you will make a weekend of it and see all Mathews has to offer.
