For participating in 2026 Gran Fondo Lake Huron

Our story…

The Tour de Friends team is proud to be riding in the Gran Fondo Lake Huron in support of Brightshores hospitals and the exceptional care they provide to our communities.

Every one of us has a reason for riding. For some, it's to honour a loved one, to give back after receiving outstanding care, or to help ensure that family, friends, and neighbours have access to the best possible healthcare close to home. We all understand that there are moments when having the right equipment, the right facilities, and the right healthcare professionals available can make all the difference.

Across the Brightshores hospitals, there are approximately $14 million in equipment and infrastructure needs. Rather than supporting a single piece of equipment, the Gran Fondo Lake Huron helps fund the resources that enable our hospitals to provide exceptional care during the moments that matter most.

As the Tour de Friends team, our goal is to raise funds that will help ensure our local hospitals continue to deliver timely, high-quality care for everyone in our region.

We invite you to support our team with a donation of any size. Together, we can help ensure that our hospitals have the resources they need—today and for years to come.

Thank you for supporting Tour de Friends and helping make a difference in our community.
