Tour de Dundas / Taste of Dundas
Sunday September 21, 2025
"A community cycling event with local flavour."
Ride from the Dundas Valley - where Canadian Olympians train.
Enjoy late-summer cycling at its finest. Starting in scenic Dundas, our longer routes climb the Niagara escarpment, wind along paved rural roads through rolling countryside and pastoral landscapes before returning to the valley.
Your lunch will be waiting for you at the Taste of Dundas outdoor food court in the picturesque Dundas Driving Park. Choose your meal from a selection of flavourful local fare, then pair it perfectly with cold craft beer.
A meal voucher is included with registration in any of the four sports-cycling rides (36 km - 100 miles). Beer will be available to purchase separately.
E-bikes are welcome.
