Tour de Ville is an annual, festive event centered on a leisurely bike ride around Historic Downtown Huntsville. The ride begins and ends at S.R. Butler Green, located at Campus No. 805 on Clinton Avenue. Riders will enjoy several noteworthy “rest stops” along the route and learn interesting nuggets about Huntsville and its rich history. The Pedal Power Exhibition, our post-ride celebration, will include music, food, drinks, and local craft beer available at Straight to Ale and other Campus No. 805 businesses.

As in previous years, we'll have a short and a long route to choose from. Both routes will stop at the same locations simultaneously enabling riders to switch between either route during the ride! We will also have a kid's ride available for younger children and their families to circle around the S.R. Butler Green area. Bring your bikes, helmets, friends, and the entire family, and have fun riding throughout Huntsville, learning about the city while supporting a worthy cause!
