Below are some questions that come up often each year. Feel free to read over our Rider Guide from this past year's bike tour to give you a better idea of what to expect on the Tour of Minnesota bike tour about things like what to pack, typical daily mileage, meals, etc.

What are the dates for the 2022 TOM? Saturday, June 18-Saturday, June 25, 2022. Participants will arrive on Saturday, June 18th to pick up their registration packet, set up their tents (or check in to their hotel), and attend a welcome/info meeting. The first day of actual riding is Sunday (which is new this year), June 19th. 

What is the cost to register? $499 (includes 10+ meals, daily snacks at rest stops, a commemorative shirt, campsites, and insurance, to name a few things)

When does registration open? Typically, registration opens February 1 each year. We have sold out our limit of 200 registration slots within 7 days of registration opening the last 4 bike tours.

What is the refund/deferral/transfer policy? We allow refunds (minus $100) for requests made in writing (a time stamped email) at least 45 days in advance of the first day of the bike tour. In the event of a medical issue (e.g. broken bone, impending surgery, etc.) a deferral can be made to next year's tour. Transfers are allowed pending OUR approval, as we need to ensure proper waivers are signed, information gathered, etc. to fulfill our legal and liability risk management. We understand that people are signing up months in advance and that "things happen", but we still have contractual obligations to honor and pay for in advance. Please consider taking out "trip insurance".

Do you allow us to bring our own support vehicles? No, at this time, our insurance provider only allows staff vehicles. We provide SAG vehicles for transporting gear and people experiencing medical issues.

Do you allow non-riders to join? No, similar to the support vehicle question, we do not offer options for non-riders at this time.
