The Columbus, Indiana People Trail System is available for all types of people powered transportation. It is an ever evolving system with a final goal of connecting our citizens and guests of our city, to key destinations throughout our community. The overall goal for future expansion of our trail system is to bring a bicycle or pedestrian facility connection within 3 blocks of 90 percent of our residents. Your participation in the Tour de Trails event(s) provides needed funds for maintenance. We thank you for joining us in this exciting and growing event!

Registration and Event Information
Register Online by July 26 to save $5.00 off the $25.00 entry fee and guarantee your shirt size (additional $5.00 for shirt). The reason why you see a lot of races requiring this two week pre-registration deadline is so we can get an accurate number of the t-shirts for the company we order through. Therefore, all those that haven’t pre-registered on or before July 26 will be subject to a first come first serve basis on how many extra shirts the event organizers have purchased. Long story short, always pre-register!
Due to COVID-19 and social distance guidelines, we will no be offering on-site registration this year. Please make sure to pre-register by Thursday, August 6.

20K, 50K & 80K Bicycle Challenge
We want all our events to be enjoyable and safe for our participants, and after careful consideration and working through all the possibilities we have decided to cancel the 2020 Bicycle Challenge. We feel that with all the changes we would need to make to keep participants and volunteers safe, it would not be an enjoyable event. We hope to see you in May of 2021.
