All routes start at the Albert Pier - with the Full and Half Tour setting off at 07:00, followed by the Railway and Mini Tours at 10:30. Sign up fees vary depending on which route you choose and your age - and participants are encouraged to raise at least £50 in sponsorship.
This promises to be a great day our for everyone from youngsters on scooter and balance bikes to the serious cyclist.
Choose from one of four routes, built with all abilities in mind. From families with little ones beginning to venture out on their bikes, to cyclists looking to build more confidence over longer distances or avid cyclists ready for the 100km leg stretcher, we have something for everyone.
Full tour - 100km
For serious cyclists who want to take on a challenge, this leg stretch of a route around the Island, takes in many hills and stunning scenery.
Half Tour - 50km
A challenge but achievable, the 50km route is designed for cyclists who want to be challenged but don't yet feel confident taking on the full 100km. Features some hills and leg stretch areas.
Railway Tour - 24km
A great route for the younger cyclists or those who are just starting to cycle longer distances. This route starts at Albert pier and follows the cycle track all the way to Corbiere and back.
Mini Tour - 7km
Our 7km family route has something for the novice and young cyclists, or those on scooters and balance bikes. This route starts at Albert Pier and follows the cycle track to the burger bar and back.
What type of bike can I use?
Any roadworthy bike is suitable. We also include electric bikes, to enable more people to take part and stay active. You could even hire an Evie bike and take on one of the routes.
Scooters and balance bikes are strictly limited to use by our younger participants and only permitted on the 7km route.
How do I raise money for Jersey Hospice Care?
Once you have registered for Tour de Jersey you will automatically have a sponsorship page set up to allow your family and friends to sponsor you for your efforts. We ask all participants to try and raise a minimum of £50. These vital donations support our care within the community and ensure that all care is free for every islander.
