PNC Tour De Lou Features New Start & Finish For 2024
The Kentucky Derby Festival’s PNC Tour de Lou will feature a new start and finish line for 2024!
Moving to Louisville’s NuLu neighborhood, the 2024 PNC Tour de Lou is scheduled for Sunday, April 14th, starting and finishing at Nulu Marketplace on Main Street in NuLu for all three distances – 20-miles, 35-miles and 62.1-miles (Metric Century). The Metric Century course again encompasses two states – Kentucky and Indiana. The course previously started at Floyd and Witherspoon Streets, in front of Waterfront Park. Cyclists also have the opportunity to ride through Churchill Downs, just weeks before the horses run in the 150th Kentucky Derby.
Plus, for the first time, all participants will receive a commemorative medal. Inspired by cycling and Derby 150, the design features a bike gear and a rose front and center. The custom design is set against a light blue and green color palette to symbolize the colors of the Bluegrass.
Cyclists can also celebrate this year’s ride with custom apparel, including the 2024 PNC Tour de Lou jersey that pays homage to Louisville with visuals of the city skyline and a fleur-de-lis. This light blue and green jersey has a full-length hidden zipper and reflective piping on the front and back seams for added visibility, along with three rear fitted pockets and a zippered back pocket. The jersey will be available for purchase during registration and online at KDF.org.
This is the 11th year for the PNC Tour de Lou, which features three separate distances (20-miles, 35-miles and 62.1-miles), along with a virtual ride option. Registration is open at KDF.org/TourdeLou
