Gran Fonda Tour Against Cancer

June 24, 2023

Family Fun Ride - 30, 50, and 75 mile routes
50 mile gravel route!

Dave Fonda, the founder of and inspiration for this event, loved cycling and his community. He started this fundraiser in 2007, dedicated to parlaying his passion into a cause that could help those fighting cancer. Although Dave lost his own battle in 2018, we keep him a part of this event by renaming it in his honor. Now, we hope the Gran Fonda Tour Against Cancer will inspire others to ride for a greater purpose.

Enjoy a healthy bike ride while fighting cancer. Ride some of the most beautiful roads in northwest Illinois!

This in-person event will begin at 8 a.m. at Tutty’s Crossing Trailhead, 250 E. Stephenson Street in Freeport.

Thank you to our 2023 FHN Foundation sponsors!
