A bike extravaganza to raise money for pediatric cancer!



Come and join us Sunday August 16th, 2026 at SpokeNGear in Two Harbors

The tutus will converge on Two Harbors again to raise money for Hepatoblastoma Research and to help support children fighting cancer! There will be a paved 23 mile route along the road shoulder for tutu clad riders to make their way to Knife River and back along the scenic highway, and there will be a cue card self navigated 50 mile gravel route where you are likely to get a little mud on your tulle!

Both ride distances are not timed. Please choose a route you can comfortably complete by 2:00pm to come score big at the silent auction!
