The “Tour de Farms” seems to be such an excellent way to show our support for a useful project and these our ways by which we can support our community and at the same time have some fun with our friends as well!! The ride certainly seems to be interesting with it covering farms, vineyards and other interesting places!! I love riding around and would love to catch up on this hobby and I hope I can make it next year!!
