The top ten fundraisers on the Tour of Novato leaderboard will each get a medal! The medalists will be determined by the leaderboard as of noon on Friday, May 8. Make sure you donate to your favorite rider to help get them to the top – especially if that favorite rider is you. Go for the gold!
Zenni is partnering with School Fuel to offer sport sunglasses for the first 200 riders who register for the Tour of Novato this year. Zunnies™ sunglasses are great for cycling, running, and being active. Make sure you register for the Tour to get your pair, which will be available for pick up at the Zenni booth on May 9. Actual frame styles and colors may vary.
You don’t even need to own a bike to ride one for the Tour of Novato. Anyone 18 or older can borrow one of Redwood Bikeshare’s e-bikes on May 9th for 4 hours for FREE! The bikes work on pedal power, and have a battery that can give you a boost if you need it. This is a great way to check out Novato’s new bikeshare program.
Whether you want to join the ride, or get from the SMART Train to the free community fair, checkout Redwood Bikeshare to make commuting easy.
As part of the 2026 School Fuel Tour of Novato festivities, Bicycle Brüstop is offering a Sip & Support all day on 5/9/26. Simply let your bartender know you’re there to support School Fuel’s Tour of Novato, and they will donate 20% of your entire tab straight back to School Fuel. Whether you choose one of the six cold craft beers they have on draft, or a refreshing non-alcoholic option after your ride, every sip helps fuel the cause. It’s the perfect way to celebrate a great day on the bike while giving back to the School Fuel program that makes the Tour of Novato possible. Just show up, mention the Tour, and enjoy knowing your tab is supporting local cycling and youth programs. Pro tip: Fancy university studies have repeatedly shown that riding bikes makes beer taste better, so cruise by after your ride for the ultimate Tour of Novato experience!
All participants who register by April 30th will get a collector 2026 Tour of Novato T-shirt. If you register later, shirts will be available only while supplies last. The shirts are a super-soft tri-blend that looks and feels great. Men’s, Women’s and Youth sizes available, choose your size when you register.
