Celebrate the Tour de France with the Naperville Park District’s annual Junior Tour de Naperville on Saturday, August 10. Kids ages 3-12 have the opportunity to ride bikes, tricycles or big wheels along the 1.2-mile path at Wolf’s Crossing Community Park, located at 3252 Wolf’s Crossing Road. Parents are welcome to cheer for their child from the sidelines or accompany them around the course. All participants are required to wear a helmet.

Note three separate start times based on age group. The 3-5-year-olds will begin at 9AM, followed by the 6-8-year-olds at 10AM and finishing with the 9-12-year-olds at 11AM.

The older children are encouraged to challenge themselves by riding the course as many times as they can. Each registered child will receive a yellow t-shirt, and there will be “support and gear” (SAG) stops throughout the course with water for the participants.

Registration for the 2024 Junior Tour de Naperville is in progress.

The cost per rider is $19 for residents and $27 for nonresidents.
