Dear Potential Sponsor,

We are currently in the process of organizing the 2024 version of Tour de Bluff. Tour de Bluff is an annual bicycle themed event produced and managed by Novel T’s and made possible through partnerships and sponsorship funding. 

Tour de Bluff was created for people of all ages to learn fun, safe ways to enjoy bicycling. Anyone can participate; those who are just learning to ride a bicycle, those who ride regularly, and those who haven’t been on a bicycle since they were kids. Your support not only holds immense value for us but also contributes to the prosperity of our city and underscores your commitment to fostering a healthy and safe community.

Tour de Bluff 2024 presents an opportunity for participants to engage in the revitalization of our vibrant Central Arkansas community. With enjoyable routes and activities, this year's event promises an even more exhilarating experience.

Tour de Bluff 2024 will feature the new Bike Room

The Tour de Bluff Bike Room serves as an exclusive showcase for bicycle companies, shops, cycling events, and related products and services. It offers both seasoned cyclists and novices a unique opportunity to explore the latest products, trends, and information within the cycling community.

This dedicated space is a highlight of Tour de Bluff 2024 Friday events. Situated indoors, the Bike Room provides an ideal setting for engaging displays, informative demonstrations, and meaningful conversations centered on all things cycling.

Partners of Tour de Bluff reap numerous promotional benefits. These include direct access to health-conscious individuals within our community and visiting patrons. Our aim is to extend the reach of Tour de Bluff far and wide, increasing participation, showcasing Pine Bluff, and spotlighting the diverse array of activities available here. Your sponsorship can be instrumental in achieving these goals.
