The Tour de Donut returns to New Wilmington this summer after skipping 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The two-day event begins with a Donut Dash 5K on Friday, Aug. 20, followed by the Tour de Donut on Saturday, Aug. 21.
The cycling event features scenic rides on lightly to moderately traveled roads in Lawrence County. Riders must wear a helmet while cycling.
Same-day registration for the Tour de Donut will open 8 a.m. at the Apple Castle, 277 state Route 18, New Wilmington, Pa. 16142.
All riders will need to sign in at Apple Castle Pavilion to actively participate in the ride. Each loop begins and ends at Apple Castle. Drinks, snacks and doughnuts will be supplied to all riders at designated stops along the routes.
Cyclists who eat a full dozen doughnuts during the ride will win a commemorative souvenir. Riders 12 and under only need to eat a half dozen.
