Our latest video below highlights the reason we do the Z Tour Bike Ride every year! It’s for the kids!
25% of our population is 100% the future. Every dollar from our ride goes back to the Zearing Child Enrichment Center.
We have made several exciting modifications to our five route options to best serve riders of all caliber and ability level this year. Special thanks to Princeton’s street department for their continued cooperation with the event. All routes, besides the 10 miler, will wind through beautiful sections of historic Princeton and swing by our benefactor organization, the Zearing Child Enrichment Center. Riders are invited to visit our many fine shops and restaurants on historic Main Street after the ride.

We have made several exciting changes to our five route options that will serve every level of rider this year. Special thanks for the continued cooperation of the City of Princeton, in that we are also extremely stoked that all routes (except the 10) will once again return to town and ride down Princeton’s Historic Main Street. There will be no street parking permitted on the west side of Main Street on the day of the ride!
Because rider safety is our primary concern, all of our routes are mapped with cue sheets/cue cards, using white road (Dan Henry System) markings, and have excellent signage. We patrol roads with support vehicles that are in constant radio communication with the Bureau County Emergency Management Staff. Busy intersections are controlled by our very dedicated local law enforcement.
See our Routes page for more information.
