Tour de Tysons Bicycle Races

Tysons Corner Bike Races today

Today, Sunday June 29th, from 7:30am to 5:30pm there will be bicycle races in Tysons Corner.  These races will be for all ages and all skill levels.  There will be 9 races in total.  Refreshments and Fun for Spectators will be provided.

The Tour de Tysons will be held at 1800 Tysons Boulevard.  This is the location for both the start and finish of the races.  This location is very close to the Tysons Galleria Mall, and also near one of the new metro stations.  It is also the same building as the local PricewaterhouseCoopers headquarters.

This event is sponsored by the Tysons Partnership “Building America’s Next Great City,” National Capital Velo Club, Fairfax Advocates for Better Biking, United Health Care, Freshbikes, Lerner Enterprises, and the Sun Gazette Newspaper.

It will be a great event here in Tysons.  It is one of many planned and supported by the Tysons Partnership.  Other events by the Tysons Partnership are: Sunday Farmer’s Market, Great Tastes of Tysons Festival, Tysons World Music Festival, Tysons BBQ, Bourbon and Beer Festival, Great Pumpkin Gathering, and Tysons Harvest Festival.

I am also working with Food For Others to create an annual 5k event.  Which would be another great way for local residents to get out, get connected, and get healthy!

It’s great that this bicycle event and others are happening in Tysons.  This great is really becoming a great place to live, work and play.
