FARMINGTON — Cyclists are invited to a 14-mile Blueberry Tour starting at 9 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 6, at Meetinghouse Park, celebrating the 29th annual Wilton Blueberry Festival.

Organizers of this fall’s Tour de Farmington are hosting the tour, with a destination at the Wilton Blueberry Farm. Interested cyclists are encouraged to head to the farm for blueberry picking and a light tour on the Whistlestop Trail (14 miles round trip).

The tour is an unsupported ride and is open to cyclists of all abilities. Organizers hope to gather input from participants on the overall route difficulty and road conditions as they travel from Farmington into East Wilton.

The terrain for the route is designated as suitable for beginner cyclists, families with children and blueberry aficionados of all ages. Organizers recommend that participating cyclists wear helmets. All riders under age 16 must wear ANSI-approved helmets, as required by Maine law.

A map of the tour is available at http://www.mapmyfitness.com/routes/view/31708626.

Cyclists interested in participating should convene at Meetinghouse Park in Farmington at 9 a.m. Volunteer tour organizers Jeremy Smith and Jean Luc Theriault will ride with cyclists. For more information, contact Smith at 232-4691 or [email protected].

The Tour de Farmington is an annual bike tour of Franklin County area farms started in 2010 with support from several dozen community volunteers. This year’s tour is slated for Oct. 1 and will feature 25-mile, 40-mile and 57-mile routes in Franklin County, with stops at many area farms.
