In May, 2017 we hosted the Stage II Start of the race with an exciting Lifestyle Festival, Classic Car and Bike Show and even a Community Cruise along the official route! Tour officials tell us that Modesto offers a wide variety of unique challenges and scenery in addition to unmatched ability to cater to every need.
